Discussion Questions for May 24, 2026
If you enjoy these questions or they are useful, I would like to hear about it! - Pastor Harvey
1. The Cost of Being "Hunted"
To become someone people actively seek out for hope and truth, we have to live an identifiable, distinct life. What specific "comforts or safeties" are the hardest for modern Christians to lay down in order to be notice-ready and available to the world?
2. Guarding Against "Cultural Religion"
It is easy to mistake cultural friendliness, spiritual open-mindedness, or superstitious beliefs for a genuine allegiance to Christ. How do we practically navigate conversations with people who are highly "religious" or moral, but are still missing a true relationship with Jesus as King?
3. Embracing the Weak with Patience
When interacting with spiritually confused or weak individuals, it can be easy to experience frustration when they hold onto wrong beliefs. What does it look like in our daily lives to adopt Paul’s mindset of "becoming weak to win the weak" without compromising the absolute truth of the Gospel?
4. Overcoming the Fear of the Contentious
Rejection is an inevitable part of scattering the seed of the Gospel. When a conversation turns contentious or a door is completely closed, how do we discern the difference between faithfully persevering with someone versus knowing when to move on to those who are ready to listen?
5. Identifying "Your One"
The Great Commission can feel overwhelming when we look at the vastness of the world, but it becomes manageable when we focus on one person at a time. Without necessarily sharing names, what are the common barriers (fear, busyness, awkwardness) that stop us from identifying and intentionally praying for that one person in our immediate circle?
