Week 2: The Body in the Boat – Living into our God-Given Potential

Dan Meyer

Romans 12

What was one highlight or "God moment" from your week—something that brought you joy, gratitude, or a sense of His presence? Briefly share with the group.

Discussion:

1. What stood out to you most from the sermon or the key Scripture passage (Romans 12)? What surprised you, encouraged you, or challenged you?

 

2. What does this passage/message reveal about God's character or His heart for us? How does that truth connect to what we see in the rest of Scripture or in Jesus?

 

3. Can you think of a time in your life when you've experienced (or struggled with) the truth this sermon highlighted? Share as you're comfortable—what happened, and what did you learn about yourself or God through it?

 

4. What is one specific way God might be inviting you to respond this week—whether in your thoughts, relationships, habits, or service to others? What's a potential obstacle, and how could our group support you in taking that step?

 

5. How might this message shape how we live as a group or reach out to those around us? (e.g., encouraging one another, inviting someone, or showing grace in a tough situation).

 Wrapping It Up:

Take time to share any praise reports, answered prayers, or good news from the week. Then pray for one another—ask God to grow your faith, deepen your love for each other, and equip you to live out what you've heard.

 

“Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ.” — Romans 10:17 (NIV)

 

“We ought always to thank God for you, brothers and sisters, and rightly so, because your faith is growing more and more, and the love all of you have for one another is increasing.” — 2 Thessalonians 1:3 (NIV)
