Relationships & Priorities // Genesis 12:1-9 // 02.22.26

As Abram enters the Promised Land, we look ahead to see how God's initial counsel was designed to save him from a whole lot of trouble, and learn from his example of prioritizing worship.SMALL GROUP QUESTIONS:- Abraham partially obeyed God by leaving his homeland, but brought his father and nephew Lot with him. Have you ever experienced tension between honoring family relationships and fully obeying what you believe God is calling you to do?- How do you discern which difficult relationships you are called to maintain sacrificially versus which ones God may be calling you to limit or leave for the sake of your spiritual growth?- The question from Amos 3:3 asks, 'Can two walk together, unless they are agreed?' How does this principle apply to the relationships you prioritize in your life, particularly regarding shared spiritual direction?- Paul taught that bad company corrupts good morals. How do you evaluate whether you are influencing others for Christ or whether you are being negatively influenced?- What does it look like practically in daily life to "build" worship and "pitch" the less important things?
