Sermon Discussion Questions – 1 Timothy 3:1-16

Here are a few questions from today’s sermon meant to help guide us all in prayerful conversation:

1. Read 1 Timothy 3:1-16. In vs. 15, Paul says that he wrote this so that we might now how we ought to behave in the household of God. How does this passage guide us in that way?

2. Make a list of the characteristics that overseers and deacons ought to have according to this passage. Prayerfully consider which of these areas you still need growth in. Write them down and consider sharing them with others.

3. How does the good news of Jesus meet you in your exposed need?

4. Discuss how the Holy Spirit is leading you toward spiritual maturity alongside your church family.

Sermon Discussion Notes – 1 Timothy 2:1-15

Read 1 Timothy 2:1-15

The gospel frees both men and women alike to live in a way that learns about Jesus and the fullness of the good news as found in the whole of Scripture.

We are each free to learn to be with him, and become more like Him, and do the things that He does.

And the first step is learning to follow Him in prayerful humility…

Learning to lay down all our self glorifying actions in exchange for Jesus glorifying actions…

Which looks like getting quiet, learning to be content, learning to be honest about who we are in light of who He is, learning to trust Him wholly, learning to love others the way He loves…

It is learning to submit ourselves to the Kingdom of God, which subverts the ways of the world as we lay down our pursuit and clamor for power, influence, and platforms and follow Jesus into a prayerfully humble way of living.

Communal Bible Reading // March 14-18

As Jesus said in John 15:5, “Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.” 

For that reason, we have created a Communal Bible Reading exercise that will be made available weekly throughout this year. Each week will include 5 days of readings, and instructions to walk you prayerfully through the day’s passage.

Our hope is that it leads us to spend time abiding in Christ in one accord and that from that abiding we will be made more like Jesus.

Communal Bible Reading // February 28-March 4

Lent begins this Wednesday, March 2nd. Traditionally, Lent is a 40 day period of fasting, prayer, and devotion towards remembering our brokenness and God’s work of redemption through the person and work of Jesus Christ. This season leads up to Good Friday when we remember the crucifixion of Jesus, and all that He accomplished through His work on the cross; knowing that an empty tomb lies just beyond it. 

At Redemption Church, we don’t want to insist on a particular way to observe Lent. However, we do want to invite you to be with Jesus with intention during this season. 

We’d love for you to join us in utilizing our Communal Bible Reading Plan. Each week we provide 5 days of readings and instructions to walk you prayerfully through the day’s passage. 

You can actually join us in this practice now. This week’s Bible Reading Plan is available below. We hope you find it beneficial as you practice abiding in Christ.
