DISCIPLESHP QUESTIONS

DISCIPLESHIP QUESTIONS


“ And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds” Hebrews 10:24


The goal of discipleship is Christ-likeness in every area.


The journey is one of leaving our past, our sin and our broken selfishness behind as we “put on the new self” (Col 3:8 – 9) and pursue God’s Kingdom in everything (Matt 6:9 – 13, 33)


D Questions exist to help create personal awareness, accountability and increasing focus as we continue to journey in becoming more like Christ in every area of life. The goal, in their use, is to use these as a tool to help you reflect, pray, repent, and be changed more into the image of Jesus (Rom 8:29)


We frame these questions primarily under the five different focuses as unpackaged from Ephesians 4 that enable health in both the individual and community.

Attached to each question set are Biblical verses that may help in digger deeper into the issues that arise as you journey.


These questions are designed to be used in smaller huddle groups (2 – 4) however they can be used in any appropriate environment. You may at times only get through a single question or few, ensure that over time you ask the full span of the questions and follow up on the obedient responses drawn from loving Jesus.
