LIFEGROUP Questions

2/14/10

***Remember that we always start LIFEGROUPS reminding the group that the purpose of LIFEGROUPS is to ‘belong and become.’ To find a group of people we can connect to and build friendships, and become more like Jesus each day.

***Also reinforce the ‘Vegas Rule’ – what happens in LIFEGROUP, stays in LIFEGROUP.

Til Death Week 2: Pursuit

1. Ladies, what’s the best romantic/pursuit moment you remember from when you and your husband were dating? Guys, what was the most romantic moment you pulled off while you were dating your wife?

2. Since you’ve been married, have you had the same level of ‘pursuit’ for one another that you had when you were dating? Why or why not?

3. 2 Samuel 14:14 says that “God does not take away life; instead He devises ways so that a banished person may not remain estranged from Him.” When you look at your life, how have you seen God ‘devising ways’ to get your attention and bring you closer to Him?

4. Ephesians 5:25-29 gives us a good picture of what it means to pursue our spouses: sacrifice, serving, and supplying their needs. When it comes to your spouse, what sacrifices might you need to make personally to show your commitment to pursue your spouse?

5. How can we serve our spouses to show our pursuit of them? What needs of our spouse have we been neglecting that we need to focus on more?

6. Each person in here commit to one of the ways we can pursue our spouse this week. Next week, the spouse will bring back a report of how you did at your duty. Let’s pray that God will help us all pursue our spouses like He pursues us.

***Always close your group with a time of prayer. As a leader, you can lead this or you can all share in the requests praying for one another. You need to know where your group is at to determine what would be most comfortable in that setting. i.e. don’t ask people to pray in the group if you’re not sure they’re ready to.
