The Truth About Grace | Anchored Week 3

We usually like to kick things off light and fun, but given all that’s happening in our world right now, let’s just take a moment to honestly share where each of us are. Pick one word (seriously, just one — hyphenated doesn’t count) that describes how you’re feeling.

When you hear Jesus described as a judge, what’s your initial gut reaction and why?

Read 2 Timothy 4:1-2. What’s one area in your life that is being prepared to “meet your maker”? Maybe you’re in need of a small course correct (reprove), a total change (rebuke), encouragement (exhort), or to learn more about God’s character (teach). Share that with the group.

What does it look like in your life for Jesus to be Lord, and not just a nice guy? Share some specific examples.

Jesus is a gracious and powerful judge. What could it look like this week to experience him that way? It might even be receiving a relationship with him for the first time, or picking some area where you stop negotiating with Him. After each person shares, then someone else prays for them in that area.
