Honor

Together Group Questions The word honor occurs 142X’s in the ESV. What are some of the groups of people God’s Word says to honor? (see 1 Tim 5:3, 1 Pet 3:7, Rom 12:10, 1 Tim 6:1, 1 Tim 5:17, Lev 19:32, Exo 20:12 for examples) What areas of your life do you find it the most difficult to show honor (God, Others, Self)? What are some practical steps you can take toward improving showing honor in these areas this week? Isaiah 29:13 says that some people honor God with their lips but their hearts are far from him. What is the difference between honoring with our lips and honoring with our actions? We just came out of a tumultuous political season. What are practical ways you can honor those with whom you disagree politically? Think of two or three people who are in a position of authority in your life. How are you honoring those people? How could you honor those people in a way that would be meaningful to them? As your group closes, spend some time reflecting on this: Is there a situation or relationship which you need to restore your expression of honor in? Pray and ask God to give you the strength, courage, and opportunity to begin that restoration.
