一個有問題的家庭 A Dysfunctional Family
每個家庭都有其獨特的問題；每個家庭都有其不同之處，也各有各的挑戰。在這個「家庭主日」，張國強牧師將分享亞伯拉罕之子以撒所處的失調家庭的故事，藉此強調家庭中門徒訓練的重要性。
Every family has its unique problems; each is different and challenging in its own way. This Family Sunday, Rev. Jeremiah Cheung shares about the dysfunctional family of Abraham’s son, Isaac, to highlight the importance of discipleship within the home.

Life Group Discussion Guide
1. Start with a prayer
2. Engage one another (15-30 mins)
- Share a time when you tried to achieve something good but used the wrong approach. What happened?
3. Engage the mind (15-20 mins)
- Read the passage. What specific attitudes or actions in Isaac, Rebekah, Esau, and Jacob showed dysfunction in their family?
- What does this passage reveal about the difference between God’s will and human desires?
4. Engage the heart (15-20 mins)
- In what ways do you see tendencies of favoritism, manipulation, or selfishness in your own heart?
- Do you sometimes justify wrong methods to achieve what you believe is right or “from God”? What does that reveal about your trust in Him?
5. Engage the hands (15-20 mins)
- What is one specific step you can take this week to align your decisions with God’s truth rather than your flesh?
- How can you practice fairness, integrity, and godliness in your relationships within your family?
6. Engage with God in prayer (20-30 mins)
- Praise the Heavenly Father for being a perfect and faithful God despite the brokenness of human families. Thank Him that even when families are marked by sin, favoritism, and failure, His purposes still prevail. Rejoice that He lovingly invites you into a journey of discipleship where He patiently teaches, corrects, and transforms your heart according to His will.
- Repent for the times you have chosen your own ways over God’s ways—whether through favoritism, manipulation, selfish desires, or disobedience. Ask for forgiveness for trying to achieve good outcomes through sinful methods and for prioritizing temporary or worldly things over spiritual truths. Pray that you may learn to trust God’s process, walk in integrity, and obey Him fully in every area of your life.
