Table Group Guide
Who Do You Think You Are?
5. I Am A New Creation
Table purpose statement (Can be shared at the start or before the Discovery section):
This group exists for the purpose of discipleship. A disciple is someone who loves and obeys Jesus. (John 14:15) That means our focus is hearing from God and taking steps of faith. Our goal is to multiply another healthy Table. That means one day, some of you will lead a group like this!
Table Talk (⅓ of meeting)
- Candy corn – for it or against it?
- Briefly share a high and/or low from your week.
- Share a way God has been speaking to you through Scripture, prayer, a conversation, etc.
- List some ways we can pray for our community, then do it!
Discussion Guidelines
- Everyone shares in sentences, not paragraphs.
- Focus only on what this passage is saying. (This keeps everyone on the same page)
- Share from your perspective – we won’t argue or give advice.
- Give everyone time to respond. Silence is OK.
- The facilitator will facilitate discussion, not teach.
