    Bible Reading Convos (Matthew 11-15)

    Here are the Formation Questions from Matthew 11-15, along with our B.O.L.D. living Rule of Life challenges to prayerfully practice throughout the week. SURRENDERED TO JESUS: ▶️ Where has Jesus failed to meet my expectations, and how might He be inviting me to trust Him more deeply? ▶️ What burden am I carrying that belongs under His yoke rather than on my shoulders? ▶️ What competing desire may be choking the growth of God’s word in me? SENT ON MISSION: ▶️ Who might our assumptions or traditions cause us to overlook? ▶️ Where can I bring Jesus’ mercy into someone’s grief, fear, or scarcity? COMMITTED TO ONE ANOTHER: ▶️ Are we using truth to restore people or merely to evaluate them? ▶️ How can our community make room for honest questions without losing confidence in Jesus? B.O.L.D. LIVING RULE OF LIFE: BE WITH & BLESS OTHERS: ▶️ Spend time with someone carrying grief, disappointment, or doubt ▶️ Listen before (or maybe without) offering answers OBSERVE & OBEY THE HOLY SPIRIT: ▶️ Ask the Spirit to reveal one tradition, expectation, or inner desire that may be causing me to resist fully submitting to Jesus LOVE & LIVE LIKE JESUS: ▶️ Choose one parable from Matthew 13 ▶️ Identify what response it calls for and practice that response this week DEMONSTRATE & DECLARE THE KINGDOM OF GOD: ▶️ Offer one resource—time, food, money, prayer, or attention—to someone facing scarcity

    Bible Reading Convos (Matthew 6-10)

    FORMATION QUESTIONS SURRENDERED TO JESUS: ▶️ Where am I more concerned with appearing faithful than being honest with the Father? ▶️ What worry, possession, or ambition competes with my trust in God’s Kingdom? ▶️ What teaching of Jesus have I heard but not yet obeyed? SENT ON MISSION: ▶️ Who might Jesus be inviting me to see with compassion rather than judgment? ▶️ Where can I speak words about the Kingdom while extending mercy in practical ways? COMMITTED TO ONE ANOTHER: ▶️ Are we creating a community where people experience both genuine welcome and genuine transformation? ▶️ How can we help one another remain faithful when following Jesus becomes costly or risky? B.O.L.D. LIVING RULE OF LIFE: BE WITH & BLESS OTHERS: ▶️ Share a meal or meaningful conversation with someone who may feel overlooked or excluded this week OBSERVE & OBEY THE HOLY SPIRIT: ▶️ Ask each morning, “Father, what are You asking me to trust or obey today?”  ▶️ Act upon one clear response LOVE & LIVE LIKE JESUS: ▶️ Choose one teaching from Matthew 6–7 and practice it intentionally throughout the week DEMONSTRATE & DECLARE THE KINGDOM OF GOD: ▶️ Pray for someone’s need and connect that prayer with a tangible act of compassion

    Bible Reading Convos (Exodus 16-20)

    REFLECTION QUESTIONS SURRENDERED TO JESUS: ➡️  Where am I struggling to trust God for today's provision and instead demanding future certainty? ➡️  What current difficulty is causing me to question God's presence? ➡️  Is my obedience motivated by gratitude for God's grace or by an attempt to earn His approval? ➡️  Do I approach God with both intimacy and reverence? SENT ON MISSION: ➡️  Where is God calling me to step forward in faith rather than waiting for perfect conditions? ➡️  How might God want to use my current challenges to strengthen my witness and dependence on Him? ➡️  How can I help others see God's faithfulness in difficult seasons? COMMITTED TO ONE ANOTHER: ➡️  How have I been helping carry the burdens of others? (i.e. prayer, reaching out, practical support, etc) ➡️  Where is God inviting me to partner with others rather than carry everything myself? ➡️  Do I create healthy shared responsibility, or do I contribute to unhealthy dependency? ➡️  How am I helping to cultivate a community marked by trust, confession, reverence, and obedience? INTEGRATED (B.O.L.D. LIVING): ➡️ BE WITH & BLESS OTHERS → Support someone who is carrying a heavy burden. Offer practical help, encouragement, or simply your presence ➡️  OBSERVE & OBEY THE HOLY SPIRIT → Each morning this week, ask: "Lord, what does trusting You today look like?" Then act on the first clear prompting ➡️  LOVE AND LIVE LIKE JESUS → Practice daily dependence. Instead of worrying about future outcomes, intentionally thank Jesus for one provision He has given you today ➡️  DEMONSTRATE & DECLARE THE KINGDOM → Share with someone how God has provided, guided, or sustained you through a difficult season. Use your story to point them toward Jesus
