Walking With God: Past, Present, Future

This week, while you meet with your Faith Formation Group you may want to reflect on our Scripture passage by reading Deuteronomy 1:6-8 (printed below) and discuss the questions from the Scripture and Sermon as a way to begin a conversation. 

Deut. 1:6    “When we were at Mount Sinai, the LORD our God said to us, ‘You have stayed at this mountain long enough. ⁷ It is time to break camp and move on. Go to the hill country of the Amorites and to all the neighboring regions—the Jordan Valley, the hill country, the western foothills, the Negev, and the coastal plain. Go to the land of the Canaanites and to Lebanon, and all the way to the great Euphrates River. ⁸ Look, I am giving all this land to you! Go in and occupy it, for it is the land the LORD swore to give to your ancestors Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and to all their descendants.’”

Questions for Consideration:

1. We have been blessed to be in the Eisenhower Recreation Center for the past four years. Name something that has blessed you during our time together in that place?
2. This Scripture implies that there are times to stay put and then times to move to the next place. This applies to both our physical locations as well as our spiritual and personal being. Describe a time when God has kept you still for a period and how then God directed you that it was time to move on?
3. As you look at your past what are the foundational things God has done in your life to prepare you for the moment you are now living in?
   

As you meet this week, we encourage you to also take time to open yourselves up as a group and dialog on the following Wesley Challenge question: How do I spend my spare time? (Pages 79-84 in The Wesley Challenge)
