Dinner / Fellowship 

(Briefly welcome the group & pray before eating.)

We share dinner together as an act of fellowship. Throughout the gospels, we see Jesus constantly interacting with people over a meal. The act of eating is so universal that eating together both fills a practical need and helps us open up again to community together. As we eat and share, let’s intentionally reflect on God’s presence in our lives. Encourage people to share, not report.

  • What is something you’re thankful for?
  • How have you encountered God this past week?

Optional: you can have the elements of communion to take communion together to start or end the meal.

Bible Reading/Discussion

Psalm 19:7-11
- Read the passage and leave time to reflect as a group before discussing.

- Lead your group in a discussion regarding the passage. Here are some sample questions.

1. What stirs inside you when you hear this Psalm?

2. What is your heart posture when you approach scripture?

3. Is there any part of you that feels untrusting of scripture?

4. Do you give scripture the appropriate room in your life to shape who you are?

5. If you are currently stuggling to hear from God? If so, do you allow scripture to carry the same weight of direction as his voice?

Weekly Practice

Here is a practice you can encourage your group to use throughout the week in light of what was discussed. Click the button below for more information on how to explain the practice to your group.

End With Prayer Together

Consider this time as an opportunity to minister to each other through prayer. Follow the spirit's leading.

A leader should close out the night with a final prayer over the group as a whole and thank everyone for coming.
