Discussion Questions:
- What pushbacks, hesitations, questions, or thoughts did you have during this week’s message?
- Read 1 Timothy 2:1-6. What stands out to you in this passage? How do you think our society would be different if every Jesus Follower saw this type of Intentionally Multiplying as one of their main purposes?
- Jon asked us, “What step are you going to take?” Which of the 5 measures (Confidently Trusting, Authentically Connecting, Independently growing, Purposely Investing, Intentionally Multiplying) we’ve discussed in this series do you feel you are ready to develop further?
- Who would you like your group to pray for with you this week?
