Faithful With A Little March 8, 2026 Faithful With A Little Sermon Series: How Much Did That Cost? Download PDF Mark 12:41-44 41 And he sat down opposite the treasury and watched the people putting money into the offering box. Many rich people put in large sums. 42 And a poor widow came and put in two small copper coins, which make a penny. 43 And he called his disciples to him and said to them, “Truly, I say to you, this poor widow has put in more than all those who are contributing to the offering box. 44 For they all contributed out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty has put in everything she had, all she had to live on.” Main Idea YOU ARE TO BE FAITHFUL WITH THE LITTLE YOU HAVE. Outline GIVING IS ROOTED IN OUR FAITH (VV41-42) GIVING IS TIED TO OUR FAITH (VV43-44) Discussion Questions GIVING IS ROOTED IN OUR FAITH (VV41-42) What is Jesus doing in verse 41? Why might this be significant? What contrast do we see between the rich people and the widow? What had Jesus just said about the scribes before this story? Why do you think Jesus watches people give at the temple? What does this story reveal about what Jesus values when it comes to giving? Why didn’t Jesus stop the widow from giving her last two coins? How does the widow’s offering demonstrate faith? Why do you think money often reveals the condition of our hearts? What are some common excuses people use for not being generous? How does the “How much did that cost?” mentality affect the way we view money and others? What would it look like for you to trust God more with the resources He has given you? GIVING IS TIED TO OUR FAITH (VV43-44) What surprising statement does Jesus make about the widow’s offering? According to Jesus, how did the widow give differently than the rich? What does Jesus mean when He says she gave “everything she had”? Why does Jesus say the widow gave more than the rich even though her gift was small? How does abundance sometimes make faith more difficult? Why can generosity be a good indicator of trust in God? Do you think generosity naturally flows from faith? Why or why not? What are some ways money can become something we love, fear, or idolize? In what ways can generosity strengthen our faith? Looking Forward What is one small way you could be more faithful with what God has given you this upcoming week? Prayer Focus Pray for hearts that trust God more than money. Pray that God would help your community group be faithful with what He has entrusted to you. Pray for contentment and freedom from greed or fear about finances.

Get Even July 13, 2024 Get Even Sermon Series: It Had To Be Said Download PDF Matthew 5:38-48 Main Idea Followers of Jesus express their Savior's heart towards others. They do not retaliate against those who wrong us or are unkind to us. Outline 1. We express our Savior's heart by turning the other cheek and being willing to go the extra mile. 2. We express our Savior's heart by loving our enemies by loving our enemies. Discussion Questions In Matthew 5:38-42, Jesus speaks against the principle of "an eye for an eye." How does Jesus' teaching differ from the cultural understanding of justice and retaliation during His time? How do you interpret the instruction to "turn the other cheek" and "go the extra mile"? Jesus calls us to love our enemies and pray for those who persecute us (Matthew 5:43-48). What practical steps can you take to implement this in your daily life? How can loving our enemies and praying for those who persecute us reflect the heart of our Savior? Reflect on a time when you felt the urge to retaliate. How did you respond? How might Jesus’ teaching influence your response if you encountered a similar situation today? Looking Forward Prayer Focus

Caring for Widows January 11, 2025 Caring for Widows Sermon Series: Womb to Tomb Download PDF Exodus 22:22-24 Main Idea God's people are to share God's heart to care for those who can't care for themselves Outline God has concern for those who are neglected. {Exodus 22:22-23} God has condemnation for those who are unjust. Exodus 22:24} Discussion Questions General Questions: In 1 Timothy 5:3-16, Paul provides specific instructions on supporting widows. What principles can we extract from this passage to apply in our context today? Psalm 68:5 describes God as a ‘father to the fatherless, a defender of widows.’ How can embodying this aspect of God’s character influence our approach to social justice and mercy ministries? 1 Timothy 5:4 emphasizes that if a widow has children or grandchildren, they should first learn to show godliness by caring for their own family. How can families and the church collaborate to ensure widows receive comprehensive support? In what practical ways can you personally contribute to caring for widows in your community? Consider time, resources, and advocacy. Family Questions: Have you ever met someone who was lonely or needed help? How did you feel when you helped them? Do you know someone in our family or church who has lost a loved one? How can we show them that we care about them? A widow is someone who has lost their husband. How do you think they feel, and what can we do to make them feel loved? In Luke 4:18, Jesus said He came to help people who are hurting or lonely. How do you think Jesus would want us to treat widows or people who don’t have family to help them? What are some things we can do as a family to help people who are lonely, like widows or older people in our church? Activity: “Love in Action” Challenge •Plan a family project to bless a widow or an older person. Ideas include: •Making a homemade card or artwork. •Baking cookies and delivering them. •Inviting them over for a meal or visiting them. •Offering to help with tasks like yard work or groceries.

WHAT WOULD JESUS DO... ABOUT TRANSGENDERISM September 13, 2026 WHAT WOULD JESUS DO... ABOUT TRANSGENDERISM Sermon Series: WWJD Download PDF Matthew 19:3-12 3 And Pharisees came up to him and tested him by asking, “Is it lawful to divorce one’s wife for any cause?” 4 He answered, “Have you not read that he who created them from the beginning made them male and female, 5 and said, ‘Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’? 6 So they are no longer two but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let not man separate.” 7 They said to him, “Why then did Moses command one to give a certificate of divorce and to send her away?” 8 He said to them, “Because of your hardness of heart Moses allowed you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not so. 9 And I say to you: whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery.” 10 The disciples said to him, “If such is the case of a man with his wife, it is better not to marry.” 11 But he said to them, “Not everyone can receive this saying, but only those to whom it is given. 12 For there are eunuchs who have been so from birth, and there are eunuchs who have been made eunuchs by men, and there are eunuchs who have made themselves eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. Let the one who is able to receive this receive it.” Main Idea JESUS' TEACHINGS AND TREATMENT OF PEOPLE WERE DONE WITH CLARITY, CONVICTION, AND COMPASSION Outline Discussion Questions JESUS TAUGHT WITH CLARITY (VV3–6) 1. The Pharisees come to Jesus with a question about divorce, testing him. What does their approach reveal about how they use Scripture? 2. Jesus points to creation, “he who created them from the beginning made them male and female” (v4), instead of popular opinion. Why does Jesus root the answer in creation rather than the cultural debates of the time? 3. Why does Jesus treat Scripture as clear and settled rather than open to reinterpretation by culture? 4. In what ways does our culture ask us to define gender for ourselves rather than receive it from God? 5. What is one area of your life where you are tempted to let culture, not Scripture, define reality for you? JESUS SPOKE WITH CONVICTION (VV7–9) 1. The Pharisees cite Moses's allowance for divorce. How does Jesus respond to this challenge? 2. Jesus says Moses's allowance was a concession for “hardness of heart,” not God's design (v8). Why does that distinction matter? 3. Why do you think Jesus does not soften this teaching, even though it was unpopular? 4. Where do we feel pressure to soften biblical convictions (about gender, marriage, or something else) to avoid conflict? 5. How can we speak the truth with conviction while staying kind to people who disagree with us? JESUS MINISTERED WITH COMPASSION (VV10–12) 1. How do the disciples react to Jesus's teaching on marriage and divorce (v10)? 2. Jesus brings up eunuchs (people whose bodies or circumstances did not fit the typical picture of marriage) in verses 11–12. What does this show about how Jesus makes room for people? 3. Jesus says “not everyone can receive this saying” (v11). What does that reveal about how Jesus treats people who struggle to accept this teaching? 4. How does Jesus hold both clear teaching and compassionate care together in this passage? 5. What would it look like for you to hold firmly to Scripture's teaching on gender while still loving people who see it differently? 6. Who in your life is wrestling with questions about identity, and how can you show them Christ-like compassion this week without compromising truth? Looking Forward Jesus never sacrificed truth for love or love for truth. Jesus always held both together with clarity, conviction, and compassion. What is one way you can reflect the example of Jesus this week in how you engage someone who sees gender or identity differently than Scripture teaches? Prayer Focus Pray for… • Clarity to know and hold on to what Scripture teaches about who we are as men and women • Conviction to speak the truth even when it is unpopular • Compassion to love and listen well to people who are wrestling with questions of identity
