Bible
1. Identity in Christ (Following Jesus):
Verses 3-7 paint a beautiful picture of God's grace in our salvation. How does this passage change the way you view your identity?
We are described as "chosen", "holy and blameless", "adopted", and "lavished with grace". Discuss what these terms mean to you and how they impact your daily life.
The passage emphasises our dependence on God's power for salvation. How can you create a greater reliance on God in your walk with Jesus?
2. Building Christian Community:
Throughout the passage, Paul uses plural language ("us", "we"). What does this tell us about the importance of community in the Christian life?
How can you practically contribute to building a strong and loving community within your Life Group and church?
3. Sharing the Gospel with Newcastle (Loving Newcastle):
Verse 12 reminds us that we are chosen "for the praise of His glory"! How can we live in a way that reflects God's glory and attracts others to Him?
The Holy Spirit empowers us to share the good news of Jesus. How can you be more intentional about sharing your faith with those around you?
Who could you invite to Alpha this term?
Prayer
Pray with one another about how we can follow Jesus, build community and love Newcastle together this term.
