The Believer’s New Normal (3 Questions on Sanctification)

Life Group Discussion Guide
1. Start with a prayer
2. Engage one another (15-30 mins)

3. Engage the mind (15-20 mins)

- For you, is the law good or not? Why do you think so?
- What did you learn about God through the passage?
4. Engage the heart (15-20 mins)
- Reflect: What are your weaknesses and tendencies to sin?
- In what way do you identify with Paul’s experience?
5. Engage the hands (15-20 mins)
- When faced with a temptation, what specific actions can you do to flee from it?
- What support can our group provide you?
6. Engage with God in prayer (20-30 mins)
- Thank God because, through Jesus, we are holy and righteous in His sight and we are not required to fulfill the law to be saved.
