Who Is God? He's the Creator!

Use Romans 1:18-25 to guide you as you work your way through these 20 questions designed to help you explore God's identity as Creator.

1. Are men really ungodly and righteous? Why or why not?
2. By whose standards are these judgments made?
3. What makes someone ungodly or unrighteous?
4. What truths about God do people suppress? Why?
5. What are the attributes of God that are clear to everyone?
6. How can creation point us to God?
7. Does it matter that God is immortal?
8. If God is the creator, what –if any– is our responsibility to him?
9. Why wouldn’t someone want to believe that God is the creator?
10. What do you think it means to “worship the creature”? Do people worship the creature today?
11. How does suppressing God’s truth make it easier for people to claim “wisdom”?
12. What is “wisdom”? Who is someone most non-believers think is wise?
13. Do people prefer “black and white” wisdom or “gray”? Why? Does God see in black and white?
14. Why does God consider man’s wisdom to be “futile thinking”? Can you think of an example of this?
15. In what way are men’s hearts darkened and foolish? Does this apply to everyone? Why or why not?
16. How are people “without excuse”? For what? To whom?
17. Why is God wrathful?
18. Who is in danger of facing God’s wrath?
19. How is God’s wrath evident today?
20. How will it be evident in the future?

Discussion Questions for Easter

Have several people ask the question, “What’s the most important thing you’ve ever done?” Ask other people, “What do you hope to accomplish in the next several years of your life?” Tell your class that today you’ll be talking about “life mission” or the one most important thing you do that drives everything else. Tell them that Jesus’ resurrection from the dead is the defining moment in history, so it should be the defining moment in our lives. Read 1 Corinthians 15:12-19. How does the resurrection impact some of the crucial beliefs of Christianity?  How would Christianity be different if there was no resurrection? How would you be different without the resurrection? Read 1 Corinthians 15:50-58. What are some specific ways that the resurrection gives us hope? If you had been a friend of Jesus when he was on earth, how would the resurrection have impacted your life?  How do you think his followers then were effected by the resurrection? Read 1 Corinthian...

FIGHT CLUB! (iron sharpening iron)

Our youth pastor, Keith Sandison, has implemented "Fight Clubs" with the young men of our church. While these teenagers and young adults aren't actually pummeling each other physically, they are using the opportunity to aggressively challenge one another to be more attentive to their spiritual formation. Right now my son is participating in a fight club focusing on Proverbs. I love it. Keith has created a handout he uses for the fight clubs which lists seven different methods of "generic Bible study". I think the idea started with this post a few years ago, but as he often does; Keith took my thoughts and made them immensely more substantive and beneficial. Check out his system below:

Community Killers Part Four: Complaining

Nothing can tear a group apart faster or more effectively than a spirit of complaining. For some reason, complaints seem to breed faster than rabbits. Once one person’s complaining goes unchecked, it won’t be long until others have joined in and eventually the entire group is sucked into a hopeless vortex of swirling complaints. Often these complaints have little to do with the group, but they have the potential to sideswipe and destroy a group meeting, or if left unchecked, an entire group. Complaints may cover a variety of subjects. Group members might complain about their job, their day, their neighbor, their spouse, or even the church. The role of the leader is to deal with these complaints in a way which is formative for the person, instructive for the group, and glorifying to God. Because a LIFEgroup should be a place where people share their struggles and receive support and prayer, it can sometimes be difficult to know when someone is sharing a difficulty or...
