Read together

Romans 12:1-11

Discuss 8 questions Download Show questions Hide questions
  1. Read this week’s covenant commitment: Serve the Lord and his church - to express our love for Jesus, to affirm God's arrangement of the members of this body, and to embrace the Spirit's endowment of our skills and spiritual gifts. We will also serve wherever we are needed.
  2. How do you think we (CSBC) are doing with the 80/20 rule (20% of the people do 80% of the work)? Where do you see us? Why?
  3. Look at verses 1 & 2. What are “the mercies of God”? How should we respond to them?
  4. What does it mean to present yourself to God as a “living” sacrifice?
  5. Looking at this passage, how do we know that service in church should be for all believers?
  6. How has serving helped you remain humble? On the other hand, how can service make us prideful if we don’t practice “sober judgement”?
  7. What picture of the church do we see in verses 4 & 5? How does service bring us together as a church?
  8. How could our Small Group serve together in some fashion… either in the church or in the community?

Pray

Pray that God would open our eyes to opportunities to serve in the church and in the community.

Before you go

  • It’s almost time for Upward Basketball, and we need your Small Group’s help! We are looking for volunteers to serve during our upcoming player evaluations on Thursday, Nov. 12 (6-8pm), Saturday, Nov. 14 (9-11am), and Tuesday Nov. 17 (6-8pm).
  • No knowledge of basketball is necessary to help! We simply need willing hearts and helping hands to make these evaluation days run smoothly and create a welcoming experience for the families who come through our doors.
  • If your Small Group is available to help, please let me you which date(s) your group can serve (or you can call the church office or email 4873csb@gmail.com).
  • This is a great opportunity for your group to serve while making an impact on our community!
  • Thanks!
