THIS PAST WEEK @ GRAVITY – Sunday, February 2nd, 2025

SCRIPTURE PASSAGE – Hosea 2:14-23

  • QUESTION #1 – “Re-read verses 14-15. Don mentioned that Old Covenant faithlessness led to New Covenant grace. God will bless His people abundantly. As we see in verse 15, God takes our valleys of trouble and turns them into doors of hope. The cross of Christ led to His miraculous resurrection, victory over sin & death! When did God turn your valley of trouble into a door of hope?” (Romans 8:1 & 28)
  • QUESTION #2 – “Re-read verses 19-20. In this section, we read of God’s restoration of shalom. In THAT day, God will bless His people with righteousness, justice, steadfast love, mercy, and faithfulness. Where is your hope? Are you living for this world or for eternity? Do you have too much trust in something in this life instead of God? Please explain.” (Psalm 62:5-8 & John 3:16)
  • REFLECTION/ENCOURAGEMENT of the Week – “How is your relationship with God? Do you genuinely know His deep love for you? Are you daily living in His mercy and grace?” (Lamentations 3:22-24 & Romans 8:38-39)

Sunday, January 19th, 2025

  • QUESTION #1 – “In verse 10, God says that the Israelites, who were once called ‘Lo-ammi’ (not my people), will be called ‘children of the living God.’ What does this change represent, and what does it tell us about God’s willingness to restore His people?” (Ephesians 1:7-10 & Hebrews 9:15)
  • QUESTION #2 – “What can we learn from Hosea’s story about God’s patience and love, even when we are unfaithful to Him? How does this impact how we live our lives today?” (Romans 5:6-11)
  • REFLECTION/ENCOURAGEMENT of the Week – “Are you planting the great seed of Truth? What are some ways that you can sow seeds of the Gospel this week?” (Matthew 28:19-20 & Romans 10:14-15)

Sunday, January 12th, 2025

  • QUESTION #1 – “In the sermon this morning, Don said ‘Religion will save no one. We should follow our Father out of love, not in an effort to do good deeds/impress others. Trust Jesus FIRST, then pursue obedience from the God-given desire in your heart.’ Don’t lose Christ in pursuit of religion! Have you lost Jesus in the routines of your religious life before? Please explain.” (Ephesians 2:8-9)
  • QUESTION #2 – “Re-read verse 51. Despite knowing His mission, Jesus went back to Nazareth with Mary and Joseph and was obedient to them. Why is His submission to His earthly parents significant, and what does it teach us about humility and obedience in our own lives?” (1 Peter 5:5-7)
  • QUESTION #3 – “Re-read verse 52. Here it says that “Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man.” What does this tell us about Jesus’ continual growth and development, and how does it challenge or encourage us in our own growth as followers of Christ? Keep Christ at the center of your life! How can you be more mindful of Christ in your daily life?” (Matt. 6:33 & Col. 3:1-4)

Sunday, January 5th, 2025

  • QUESTION #1 – “Re-read verses 25-26. God, in His providence, promised to bring Simeon and the Messiah together. God is sovereign and He orders each of our steps, every day of our lives. Knowing all of this to be true, please share a time when you clearly saw God working in your life for your good.” (Psalm 37:23 & Proverbs 16:9)
  • QUESTION #2 – “Don mentioned in his sermon that Simeon saw Jesus as two things: First, in verse 30, Simeon beholds Salvation. Second, in verses 34-35, Simeon beholds a Sword. To all people, Christ is either a sword (God’s justice) or salvation (God’s grace). Is Jesus a sword or salvation to you? Please explain. (Romans 6:23)
  • QUESTION #3 – “To close the sermon this morning, Don gave us 4 application points:
    1. Anticipate Jesus, 2) Welcome Jesus into your life, 3) Praise God for Jesus, and

         4) Tell others about Jesus. He then asked two great questions, please answer one:

    • What can you intentionally change this year to be more mindful of Christ?
    • Do you have enthusiasm for Jesus? Why or why not? (Col. 3:2 & 3:17)

Sunday, December 22nd, 2024

  • QUESTION #1 – “Re-read verse 4. The journey Mary and Joseph took from Galilee to Bethlehem was close to 100 miles and would’ve taken about a week to travel. What does the fact that Mary and Joseph had to travel to Bethlehem teach us about obedience to God’s plan, even in difficult circumstances?” (Romans 8:28)
  • QUESTION #2 – “One of Pastor Don’s application points was ‘Be students of the Bible.’ He encouraged us to let God’s Word be our guide and to study it to know God. How can we be students of the Bible? What are some ways to make this a consistent part of our daily walk with Him?” (Psalm 119:105 & Matthew 4:4)
  • QUESTION #3 – “Another application point from Pastor Don was to ‘Celebrate the glory of advent this Christmas season.’ Christ arrived to rescue us from our sins, THE SAVIOR IS HERE!!!

      • QUESTION #2 – “Re-read verses 76-77. Here Zechariah speaks about his son, John, preparing the way for the Lord. What do you think it means to ‘give His people the knowledge of salvation’ (v. 77)? How can believers in Christ be part of that mission today?” (Psalm 105:1 & 1 Peter 3:15)
      • QUESTION #3 – “Read through the list below of 12 reasons to praise God. This is so far from a comprehensive list of reasons why we should praise God! Which reasons stated in this passage can you identify with most and why?” (Psalm 34:1, 71:8 & 150:6)

    • Sermon Title: “Baby’s First Prophecy”
    • Small Group Questions:
      • QUESTION #1 – “Don said that God can use ANY means He wishes to draw attention to His Son. If God can use an unborn baby to testify about Jesus, then He can certainly use you, right? Are you taking seriously the calling to find more worshippers for His name? How can we point others to Jesus this week?” (Matt. 5:14-16)
      • QUESTION #2 – “Re-read verse 45. Don said that ‘One who believes that God keeps His promises is joyful.’ Then he followed that up by saying a powerful truth… ‘God’s Word is a treasure to God’s people.’ What are you reading in your quiet time right now? Do you have any devotionals or Bible reading plans to share that could be done together?” (Proverbs 27:17 & Heb. 10:23-25)
      • CHALLENGE/ENCOURAGEMENT OF THE NIGHT – “We witnessed some baptisms earlier today and heard multiple testimonies. These believer testimonies strengthen the faith of other Christians.

Sunday, November 3rd, 2024

    • Sermon Title: “He Will Be Great”
    • Small Group Questions: 
      • QUESTION #1 – Re-read verses 32-33. The end of verse 33 says “and of His kingdom there will be no end.” Jesus is an eternal ruler over an eternal kingdom. When our time on Earth is up, or if He returns before we die, we will meet Him face to face. All believers will wish we testified of His glory more boldly and joyously. Do you want to boldly proclaim the Gospel to others as Jesus commanded His disciples to? How can we do this? – COME TO DARE 2 SHARE THIS SATURDAY 11:30am-3:30pm! (Matt. 28:19-20 & Romans 1:16-17)
      • QUESTION #2 – Re-read verses 37-38. Mary’s final reply to the angel Gabriel was “Behold, I am a servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word.” This is an incredible statement that demonstrates her genuine faith & trust in God. What is your initial response to these words from Mary? Are YOU ready to proclaim this humble statement to God? What needs to change in your life this week to live more in accordance with God’s word? (Matt. 16:24-26 & Col. 2:6-7)
      • CHALLENGE/ENCOURAGEMENT OF THE WEEK – Pastor Don mentioned the fact that the holidays are coming up and we will likely get together with friends and family members, some of who maybe haven’t accepted Christ as Lord & Savior by putting their faith in Him. This week, write or type your own personal testimony of when God captured your heart & you accepted His amazing gift of salvation. Thank God for this and share it with others! If you haven’t yet put your faith in Christ to save you from your sins, please talk to a leader today! (John 3:16 & Romans 5:8)

    • Sermon Title: “Betrayed by Bottomless Appetite”

      • Question #2 – The sermon emphasized that God alone can satisfy our deep desires. How can you practically begin seeking satisfaction in God rather than the “bottomless appetites” of the world?
      • Question #3 – Reflecting on your own life, are there areas where you are constantly “hungry” but never truly satisfied? What are you chasing?
        • Are there any “monuments” in your life—things built on pride or selfish ambition—that need to be reevaluated or torn down?
      • Question #4 – How does the promise in verse 14, that “the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD,” give hope in the midst of human wickedness and pride?
      • Question #5 – The passage ends with a condemnation of idolatry, mocking those who trust in lifeless idols. What are your idols (e.g., money, success, technology) that you trust in today?

  • Scripture Passage: Nahum 3
    • Sermon Title: “Assured Destruction”
    • Small Group Questions: 
      • QUESTION #1 – Re-read verses 5-7. Here God declares that He will expose Nineveh’s shame before other nations. What does this reveal about God’s attitude toward oppressive powers? How does this affect how we view justice and God’s sovereignty today? ALL sin will be punished – is your faith in Christ’s propitiation? (Romans 6:23 & 8:1)
      • QUESTION #2 – In Nahum 3, Nineveh is repeatedly warned of its destruction but doesn’t repent. Don said that “we tend to avoid what convicts us.” What are the consequences of ignoring God’s warnings in our own lives? How can we be responsive to God’s call for repentance and change? (Galatians 6:7-8 & Hebrews 12:5-7)
      • QUESTION #3 – Re-read verses 11-13. These verses speak of Nineveh’s false sense of security. Where are you running for refuge? In who/what do you put your hope? What does it look like to place our trust in God alone? – There is only ONE strong tower who never fails… and His name is Jesus! (Psalm 62:1-2 & 5-8)

Sunday, September 29th, 2024

    • Sermon Title: “When the RESTORER Restores”
    • Small Group Questions: 
      • QUESTION #1 – In Nahum 2, the city of Nineveh faces chaos, war, and destruction. What does this chapter reveal about God’s sovereignty, even when everything seems to be in turmoil? How might this apply to situations we face today? (Psalm 46:1-2 & 91:1-2)
      • QUESTION #2 – Don said that “Fighting the wrong battles the wrong ways will certainly end with bad results.” Are you fighting the right battles the right ways? Are you trusting God and communicating the Gospel clearly through your words & actions? (Matthew 5:16 & 1 John 3:16-18)
      • QUESTION #3 – Re-read verse 13. This verse starts by saying “‘Behold, I am against you,’ declares the Lord of hosts.” Compare this startling statement by God to the Assyrians with the powerful truth of Romans 8:31. What does this mean for those who have put their faith in Jesus? Have you turned to God for refuge/salvation? (Psalm 18:1-2 & Romans 8:1)

    • Small Group Questions: 
      • QUESTION #1 – Re-read verse 4. Jesse said “Countless people have (and do) gamble with the idea of God judging their sin. And if we’re honest, we have likely come to a similar conclusion from time to time in our own lives.” Have you ever been guilty of thinking that God was “OK” with a certain sin in your life because He hasn’t intervened and disciplined you for it? Explain. (Romans 1:18 & 6:23)
      • QUESTION #2 – Re-read verses 8-9. Peter explains that God’s timeline is different from ours, and He is patient, wanting everyone to come to repentance. How does understanding God’s patience affect the way we view delays in answered prayers or promises? (Philippians 1:6 & Hebrews 10:23)
      • QUESTION #3 – Re-read verses 11 & 12. In light of these verses, Jesse asked some questions for the believers in Christ (“beloved”) to consider: Are you living a life that longs to love your Lord well by desiring to walk with Him and live for Him? Are you living a life that realizes Christ, and CHRIST ALONE is your righteousness? (1 Corinthians 10:31 & Colossians 3:23-24)

Sunday, September 8th, 2024

    • Sermon Title: “Peacefully Subversive”
    • Small Group Questions: 
      • QUESTION #1 – Re-read verse 3. Paul reminds the believers of their former life, characterized by disobedience and sin. Why do you think it’s important for Christians to remember who they were before Christ? How does this memory impact your current walk with God? (Romans 6:6 & Romans 8:9-10)
      • QUESTION #2 – Re-read verses 4-7. Don encouraged us to overcome evil with good. He suggested that we counter sin at every turn by showing humble & gentle kindness.

      • QUESTION #3 – Re-read verse 14. OUR CULTURE NEEDS JESUS! Christians have the only true hope for the future, that Jesus will return! Don said that the self-centered life is a life of misery.

      2. QUESTION #2 -“In the sermon this morning, Don encouraged younger women and men to seek out a godly older woman or man who can be a spiritual mentor to you and help you grow in your faith.

      2. QUESTION #2 – “Re-read verse 13. Here Paul says, ‘This saying is true. Therefore, rebuke them sharply, so that they will be sound in the faith.’ Why do you think it’s important to correct others when they are speaking or acting in an unbiblical way?
