    Innovative

    While the message of salvation through Jesus remains unchanged, the Church should creatively adapt how it reaches people. The heart of innovation in ministry is service, and its purpose is to bring people closer to Jesus. Ultimately, the joy of innovation is sharing in the blessings of transformed lives and faith.   The Posture of Innovation is Service The Purpose of Innovation is Salvation The Prize of Innovation is sharing in the blessings of the gospel    Life Group Discussion: How does the story of the Thai soccer team rescue illustrate the urgency of innovation in ministry, and how does that relate to the Church's mission to reach the lost?   Think about a time when you focused on your own preferences in church (worship style, message, etc.). How could you reframe your perspective to prioritize how the church can serve and reach others, rather than meeting your own expectations?   When you think about the people in your life who don’t know Jesus, how can you innovate the way you interact with them to help bring them closer to salvation?

    Grace Filled

    We are saved by God's grace, not by our own works, as highlighted in Ephesians 2:8-10. Grace is a free gift, and while our works do not earn salvation, we are saved for good works that reflect our faith. The message challenges believers to both embrace God's grace and extend it to others, living as a grace-filled church.   Grace Saves Works Don’t  The Saved Work   Life Group Discussion: In what ways do we, as Christians, struggle to extend grace to others, even though we have received it freely? What challenges do you face in being grace-filled?   Cooper shared the powerful story of Ike Brown Sr. forgiving and adopting his son's killer. How does this story of forgiveness challenge your perspective on grace and forgiveness in your own life?   In what areas of your life do you feel "bumped" or tested by others? How can you be more intentional about responding with grace when you are bumped?

    Devoted

    Today’s message emphasizes the call for Christians to live in response to God's mercy. Believers are urged to offer themselves as living sacrifices, dedicating every part of their lives to God's service. We are to live our lives not conforming to the world but being transformed by the renewing of our mind. This transformation helps believers discern and follow God's perfect will.    You have been saved You are a living sacrifice You must be shaped    Life Group Discussion: What does it mean to you personally to be a "living sacrifice" in today’s world, and how can this shape your daily actions? In what areas of your life do you feel the strongest pressure to conform to the world, and how can you counteract this by renewing your mind? How can we better discern God's will in our lives, and what practical steps can we take to align ourselves with His good, pleasing, and perfect plan?

This passage highlights the importance of community, accountability, and mutual care as we grow in faith. Shepherding Encouragement Accountability Love Life Group Discussion: How can we "hold fast" to our hope in times of uncertainty, and what role does community play in helping us stay strong in our faith? In what practical ways can we encourage each other to pursue love and good works, both within the church and in our daily lives? What are some barriers that prevent us from regularly gathering with fellow believers, and how can we overcome these challenges to foster deeper accountability and encouragement?

    Biblical

    The Bible is not just a collection of ancient texts but is breathed out by God, making it a vital tool for His people. Through Scripture, God speaks to His people, revealing His truth and guiding their lives. The Bible also shapes His people by teaching, correcting, and training them in righteousness, molding them to reflect His character. Finally, God uses the Bible to send His people, equipping them thoroughly for every good work He has called them to do. As we engage with Scripture, we are not only informed but transformed and empowered to live out our faith in the world.   God uses The Bible to SPEAK to His people God uses The Bible to SHAPE His people God uses The Bible to SEND His people    Life Group Discussion: How has God spoken to you personally through Scripture? Reflect on a time when a particular passage or verse provided guidance, comfort, or conviction in your life. How did that experience shape your understanding of God's voice?   In what ways has the Bible shaped your character or actions? Consider how the teachings, corrections, and training found in Scripture have influenced your growth in faith. What specific changes have you noticed in yourself because of studying the Bible? How do you feel God is sending you to serve others based on what you’ve learned from the Bible? Discuss how the equipping nature of Scripture has prepared you for good works. What opportunities do you see in your life where you can live out the teachings of the Bible to make a positive impact?
