Family
Before time began there was a family unit – God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. When God created all of humanity he said, let us make them in our image. One of the key image-bearing jobs that mankind has is to reflect the family nature that God is. Some of us have families we love, some have families we tolerate, others of us have families we have rejected. In week three of Becoming the Church we look at how God the Father looks at the family unit and how he responds in love no matter what.
Luke 15
Discussion topics
- God IS a family. In the Bible, family extended beyond blood. Who are the people closest to you that you consider family? How have they helped you understand the love of God?
- God loves you enough to let you hit bottom. How has this truth played out in your own life? Where did God let you fall to before you turned your heart back to him? How has your life changed now in light of that tough love?
- What makes God’s love outrageous? He says, “I love you no matter what, and I forgive you in Jesus name.” In what ways has your view of God changed as you have experienced God the Father’s forgiveness and outrageous love?
