Ready For Anything - 04/28/24 - Ps. Chad Blansit

DESCRIPTION: Join us as we continue our series on The Gospel Of Luke.   TALK IT OVER QUESTIONS: 1. What has been your favorite vacation as an adult (single, as a couple or as a family)? 2. What stood out to you in this week’s sermon? What questions or thoughts did it raise in your mind? 3. John the Baptist was a bit of an outcast - he was raised in the desert, ate locust and honey, and wore a camel-hair garment. Why do you think God chose someone like John to be Jesus’ forerunner? 4. In Luke 3:3, Luke tells us John had a message of “repentance for the forgiveness of sins”. What is repentance? What does repentance look like in someone’s life? Can you tell if someone has truly repented? Why do you think churches struggle today to preach a message of repentance? 5. Read Isaiah 40:3-5 & Luke 3:4-6 in 2 different translations as a group (one of them being the passion translation). These verses talk very specifically about “preparing the way of the Lord.” Really focusing in on verses Luke 3:4-6, what kind of cutting, filling, straightening, and smoothing work has God been doing in your life? What does He still need to do? Why is this necessary preparation for us as disciples?
