Discussion Guide: Back to School – Making a Comeback

Before We Get Started

For our discussion today we will be using the sermon series discussion guides. If you would like to follow along you can access this discussion guide on the website at mosaicchurchaustin.com and then select “community group resources” in the menu options.

Prayer

Because the main goal of our time together is to establish relationships and learn how to walk with one another in all that God has called us to be and do, we’d like to begin by praying for one another. So, does anyone have anything you’d like us to pray for, or  anything to share regarding how you’ve seen God moving in your life that we can celebrate together.

This Week’s Topic

This week we celebrate our Back 2 School service. We know students, teachers, and faculty are still experiencing some difficulties and frustrations as students head back to school amidst the constantly adapting protocols and policies caused by COVID. With these ever changing obstacles come pressure, stress, frustration, and just mental and emotional fatigue. Yet, things are open and a sense of normalcy seems to be on the horizon. What does it take for us to truly make a comeback to all God has called us to?

Today’s Topic

How do you think the disciples were feeling as they watched Jesus be arrested, tried, beaten, and crucified?

How did that feeling change when they saw Him alive again? Why do you think that is?

How might the fact that Jesus is alive, and seated on the throne of the Universe today, change the way we see our current difficulties and struggles?

What “comeback” might God be calling you to make this year?

Closing Thought

Let’s take a moment to pray for our students, teachers, school faculty, and/or one another in those areas where a comeback is needed.
