What we’re learning this week:
This week at Lifeline our East Paris, Kentwood and Knapp Street campuses will each have a Lifeline student teaching. We are very excited for their peers to hear what God has put on their heart to share with them all and they have each been working hard over spring break to prepare for tonight. Each campus will have a different topic and scripture that students will be teaching from. At our Cascade Campus, we had the opportunity to hear from a student on April 19 and this week we’ll be hearing from a Lifeline staff member about the importance of prayer in our life.
If you missed the leader survey last week, please take a moment to fill that out here.
EP,KS,KW - Discussion Questions:
With each of the teachings tonight, these questions are not very specific or pointed and are aimed to just help generate conversation. Trust your instinct if you have some other questions that come to mind as you’re listening to the teaching at your campus!
Was there anything from tonight's teaching that challenged you?
God can use the words of others to uplift and encourage us. To get us excited about what we’re a part of. Did anything from tonight's teaching do that for you?
Considering what challenged us, or what encouraged us, how is that going to practically change your habits or behavior this week?
For fun discussion: If you could get on stage and teach about anything, what would it be?
CC - Discussion Questions:
Of the three excuses that were given to not praying, which one resonated most with you?
A. Prayer is not efficient
B. Prayer is weird
C. Prayer doesn’t work.
How often do you pray? How intentionally do you pray on a scale of 1-5 (5 being extremely thoughtful and intentional)
How does the challenge of praying on your knees three times a day sit with you? Who could you invite from your school to do this with you at lunch?
In your own words, what is the purpose of prayer?
If you were to define the type of prayer life you want in one word, what word would you choose?
