DISCUSSION QUESTIONS:

  1. In what way(s) have you seen God working in your life & world this week?
  2. Jesus knows you, accepts you, and invites you. Is one of those easy or difficult for you in some way? Why is that?
  3. Read Philippians 3:8-11. How would you describe “knowing Jesus?” Why do you think Paul saw it as having “infinite value?”
  4. What would knowing Jesus closer look like in your life right now? How can your group pray for you?
