Discussion Questions for Sermon Series 90 Ninety Week 3

When you read the Gospels, two things are abundantly clear. Being a sinner doesn’t disqualify you from following Jesus. And being an unbeliever doesn’t disqualify you from following Jesus. So, what does that mean for you? 

1. Do you tend to be trusting or skeptical? How has that tendency positively or negatively affected your relationship with God?

2. During the message, Jon said, “Being a sinner doesn’t disqualify you from following Jesus. It’s a prerequisite.” How does that idea challenge your assumptions about following Jesus?

3. Read Luke 5:1–7 aloud together. Have you ever chosen to trust God even though doing so didn’t seem to make sense at the time? If so, what happened?

4. Read Luke 5:8–11 aloud together. Are you currently afraid that God is separating Himself from you because of your sin? How might your life and faith be different if you were able to put aside that fear and trust Him?

5. Read 1 Peter 2:23–24 aloud together. On a scale of 1 to 10, how well does your life reflect the truth that by Jesus’ wounds you have been healed?

6. In what area of your life do you need to dial up your trust in Jesus? What is your best next step? How can this group support and encourage you as you take that step?

What is your next step—coming back, confessing, reconciling, choosing purity, taking a year off, serving, giving? Whatever your next step is, take it. You don’t know what hangs in the balance.
