Discipleship group questions

Launching questions

• Reread 2 Timothy 2:1-7. What stands out to you as you read this passage?
• We are all "links in the chain" of discipleship. Take a few minutes and share with one another about someone who has had a significant impact on your own path of discipleship.

Encourage

• What does Paul mean when he tells Timothy to "be strengthened by the grace that is in Christ Jesus?" (see also 2 Tim.1:14)  
• What spiritual disciplines (i.e. bible reading, prayer, fasting, evangelism, service, etc.) have helped strengthen you most?

Challenge

• Who is a F.A.T. (faithful, available, teachable) friend/person in your sphere of influence that you can begin/continue to invest time in in order to entrust the gospel to? When & How will you do this?
• Discipleship ("re-parenting people in the family of Jesus" - Scazzaro) is hard work!  Keep it on the real - Share with one another how & where seeking to follow Jesus and/or help others to follow Jesus is really hard for you. (How is the way of Jesus causing you to suffer? If not, why not?)
