Matthew 28:16-20; Romans 10:9-17
Part 1 - Connect Questions
1. Where have you seen God working this past week or is there anything you'd like to thank Him for?
2. Are you carrying any burdens or facing any challenges?
Give thanks for what God has done and pray for one another's burdens.
Review the previous lesson.
What do you remember from the previous passage?
How did you apply what you learned?
Did you share it with anyone?

Part 3 - Go Questions
6. Live it Out: What do you think you should do based on what you learned from this passage?
7. Pass it On: Is there anyone you could share this story with and tell them what you’ve learned? Is there anyone you would like to invite to meet with you (or us) to read the Bible and discover Jesus?
Reading Challenge
Before we meet again, everyone reads Colossians 1-4. Use the S.O.A.P. method at least two times this week along with your reading.
Other elements to add when you sense the group is ready:
Ask the Holy Spirit and whoever is discipling you for ideas and direction.
- Sing a worship song together.
- Take the Lord's Supper (communion) together. Only those who are genuine followers of Jesus should participate, so it's best to wait until everyone, or nearly everyone, in the group has decided to follow Him.
