QUESTIONS / ISSUES DISCUSSED:

LESSON #2 FROM THE EARLY CHURCH:

Pastor Vance continues to preach about the importance of unity among believers, offering some encouraging statistics about the explosion of believers around the world today.

LESSON #3 FROM THE EARLY CHURCH:

Have a desperation that produces prayer. How often do you hit your knees, pleading with God to move? Do you really believe that He can change your circumstance? Why don’t churches pray more? Pastor Vance reminds us: “If God’s not God, we’re sunk.” Ain’t that the truth?

NOTE: Did you know that the Bible has JOKES? Yep! Especially in Acts 1! Listen as Pastor Vance shares the irony…

QUESTIONS / ISSUES DISCUSSED

REFLECT ON THE ROYALTY OF JESUS

Did the people fully understand who Jesus was and why he was in Jerusalem? (Psalm 118:25-26)

What had the people been experiencing for hundreds of years before the coming of Jesus? Why were they so excited about him? Pastor Jarrett reflects back on the prophecy of Zechariah.

Jesus normally told people to keep his miracles quiet. However, during Passover, he readily received their worship. Why? (Luke 19:439-40)

Is your life under the rule and reign of Christ? How is your worship life? Are you giving your whole life to Jesus?

Who was Zacchaeus? Why were he and others in his profession so hated?

If Zacchaeus was such a “sinner”, why did he desire to see Jesus so badly? Pastor Jarrett offers several different reasons…

Why did Zacchaeus “run ahead” of the crowd and climb a tree? Pastor Jarrett shares about visiting Israel and seeing the ruins in Jericho. Click the link above and fast-forward to the 41-minute mark to see a sycamore tree.

Why did Jesus want to go to Zacchaeus’s house? Remember: Jesus was “just passing through”. What caused Jesus to stay and visit with Zacchaeus?

REVERE GOD’S AUTHORITY

Why did Paul believe that actions speak louder than words?

Do we have security in our inheritance?

Scripture References: Proverbs 4:18; Proverbs 13:12; Hebrews 7:16

QUESTIONS / ISSUES DISCUSSED:

How can we know if we have totally forgiven someone?
Don’t remind them of what they’ve done. What if someone doesn’t know they need your forgiveness? RT Kendall says to forgive them anyway – and pray for blessings on them, too! WOW! What a thought…

How can we know if we have totally forgiven someone?
Just “save face” – protect them and cover for them.
After all, Jesus did for you! And Joseph did it for his brothers – the guys who sold him into slavery!

How can we know if we have totally forgiven someone?
Protect them from their darkest secret.
Why wouldn’t Joseph let his brothers tell Jacob what they did years ago?

How can we know if we have totally forgiven someone?
It’s a life secret.
When Jacob died, why were the brothers afraid that Joseph would finally take his revenge?
Should we really keep praying for them ten years from now? RT Kendall is very firm in this: YES!

RT Kendall closes the segment today sharing about a woman in his congregation who had done something horrible to a child. He didn’t want to forgive her. What was the message he heard from God through the Holy Spirit?

How can we know if we have totally forgiven someone?
Don’t tell anybody what they did.
Ouch! That is HARD!
But remember: No one else may ever know, but God knows!

RT Kendall continues to share the story of Joseph’s forgiveness of his brothers.
Why did he forgive them?
Did the people in Egypt know what his brothers had done?
Wouldn’t the people hate his brothers as Joseph did at one time if they knew the truth?

Is it ever okay to tell someone else about your trouble with forgiveness? RT Kendall believes there are two: tell one person for therapeutic reasons and a court of law during a criminal proceeding.

Couples: How often do you “point the finger” at your spouse? Why? What good does it do? RT Kendall says to STOP IT! (1 Corinthians 13:5)

How can we know if we have totally forgiven someone?
Don’t remind them of what they’ve done.
This is a hard one, too!
But what if someone doesn’t even know they have hurt you? Tune in tomorrow as RT Kendall expands on this…

FUN FACT: March 5, 2023, marked Pastor Jarrett’s 20th year as a Pastor! Amazing!

What do you remember about the story of Joseph? Do remember his father, Jacob, being a “bad dad”? How was Jacob a “bad dad”? How and why was Joseph arrogant? Did this bother his brothers? What did his brothers do in retaliation? How did their father Jacob react to the news that Joseph was “dead”? Why were the brothers sent to Egypt? Who did they meet in Egypt? Had Joseph’s attitude toward his brothers?

Tomorrow, RT Kendall shares about a dark time that he and his wife suffered through, which turned out to be the best thing that quite possibly could have happened!

Scripture Passage: Philippians 1:3-11

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Why was Paul thinking about the Philippians? He probably had a thousand other things on his mind, but he chose to purposefully and passionately tell them he was thinking of them. When is the last time you told someone “Hey – I’ve been thinking about you”?

Has God put someone on your heart to pray for? Don’t ignore that nudge – and tell that person you are praying for them. It can be such an encouragement.

Why should we ALL come to Jesus with the attitude and heart of a child?

John Piper says this about children: “Children display in their dependence the way into the Kingdom of God.” Do you feel like you need to “earn” God’s love and grace? Stop it! Just accept it and live for Him!

How did you come to faith in Christ? Have you shared your salvation story with your kids? You should!

Are you bringing others to a saving knowledge of Christ? Pastor Steven Morris warns us that sometimes are “inactions” are seen more than our “actions”. Don’t be an inactive Christian.

We are all part of the family of God. Does God want us to just survive in His family? Or does He want us to thrive?

Psalms 127:3 “Children are a gift from the Lord.”

This week, Champion Forest Baptist Church Student Pastor Steven Morris will be encouraging us, as adults and mentors, to invest in the lives in the generation coming behind us.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Would you ever tell Jesus “no” to his face? Probably not! Then why do you say “no” to the church?

How are you sharing the Gospel on a daily basis to the younger generation? Are you encouraging them to share the Gospel as well?

Why was Jesus indignant toward the disciples? BONUS FACT: This is the only place in the Gospel that states Jesus was indignant.

Do you have a Bible-saturated home?

Pastor David Fleming encourages you to visit Champion Forest Baptist Church in NW Houston this Sunday! CFBC has Life Groups classes (Sunday School) for all ages and walks of life, including Mark Lanier’s Biblical Literacy Class, as well as several service times and locations to choose from.

Day 1

Psalms 127:3 “Children are a gift from the Lord.”

This week, Champion Forest Baptist Church Student Pastor Steven Morris will be encouraging us, as adults and mentors, to invest in the lives in the generation coming behind us.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

The Lord works in wonderful ways! Listen as Pastor Steven Morris talks with several students who attended Vacation Bible School at Champion Forest Baptist.

Why should we all invest in the lives of students, teens, and even college-age young adults?

Jesus often shocked those who were listening to him. Mark 10:13-16 is no exception. Listen as Pastor Steven reads the Scripture…

Why did the children’s guardians bring them to Jesus?

Why did the disciples try to stop the children from coming?
