I am THE MESSIAH - 3/2/25
Your Well: When you think about your "well moment"—the time when you realized that the world wasn't fulfilling your needs—how does that shape your relationship with Jesus today? What can you learn from that time as you move forward in your faith? Would you be willing to share that story with the CG?
Vulnerability in Relationship with Jesus: Jesus touched the most painful, hidden part of the Samaritan woman’s life. Is there an area of your life where you feel vulnerable or ashamed that you need Jesus to heal? What would it look like for you to invite Jesus into that space?
Breaking Through Hurdles: In the message, we are challenged to move past knowing about Jesus to knowing Him personally. What are some of the personal hurdles that make it difficult for you to move from knowing about Jesus to experiencing a personal relationship with Him?
Transformational Encounters: The Samaritan woman was deeply changed after her encounter with Jesus, leading her to boldly share her testimony. Has there been a moment in your life where you experienced a transformational encounter with Jesus that changed how you view yourself or others? How did that affect your actions?
Cultural Barriers and Jesus’ Example: Jesus crossed cultural barriers and reached out to someone who was rejected by society. Are there people or groups in your life that you find it hard to reach out to or show compassion toward? How does Jesus' example challenge you to rethink how you interact with others?
The Call to Boldness: After encountering Jesus, the Samaritan woman ran to share her testimony with her community. What would it take for you to live more boldly in your faith and share Jesus with others? What fears or insecurities hold you back from sharing your story?
** As you share the intimacy of your 'well stories' - we encourage you to pray with, for, and over one another. Finish by spending some time talking about how you can be intentional in this season of Lent to continue to remember that story, and with it, your need for a Savior.
