Table Talk (⅓ of meeting)

  • Icebreaker: What food is nostalgic for you? 
  • Briefly share a high and/or low from your week. 
  • How has it been going with following and fishing? 

Following = taking steps of faith
Fishing = sharing the love of Jesus with others 

Discussion Guidelines: 

  1. Everyone shares in sentences, not paragraphs. 
  2. Focus only on what this passage is saying. (This keeps everyone on the same page) 
  3. Share from your perspective – we won’t argue or give advice. 
  4. Give everyone time to respond. Silence is OK. 
  5. The facilitator will facilitate discussion, not teach. 

Discover what God is saying to you. (⅓ of meeting)
Read Exodus 3

  • Have someone retell this story in their own words.
  • What stands out to you from this passage? 
  • What do we learn about the idea of calling from this passage? 
  • Why is it important that Moses understands who God is before he understands what he’s called to do? 
  • Moses was in his normal routine when he noticed the burning bush. What distractions make it hard to be attentive to God’s presence or hear His call?
  • How do you intentionally listen for God’s voice in your life? Do you have practices or habits that help you discern His guidance?

Go do it. (⅓ of meeting)

  • How do you want to step away this week in order to be attentive to God? Make an “I will” statement. 
  • Where could God say “I have heard their cries of distress” when it comes to those in our region? Pray over the people impacted by what we have just discussed and be open to however God might be prompting us to respond.
