Leader Hints are designed to help guide a leader to some information that we want to “tease” out of the group. They are not there for you to directly read to the participants. People are significantly more likely to remember things they said or came up with, so your goal is to help direct them to that answer.
FINAL NOTE: Our goal is to get to the [APPLICATION QUESTION] to help work with people through how to apply what God is doing in their life.
INTRO:
- Icebreaker: What is one good thing that has happened to you or your family in the last month? Use this as an opportunity to share something that is special to you with the group.
REBUILD THE SERMON:
- We are now in the book of judges. How did Israel get to this point in their history?
- Can anyone summarize the stories of Deborah, Gideon, and Samson?
- Can you identify areas in your life or society where chaos leads to significant consequences and how these instances relate to the chaos-consequences concept discussed in the sermon?
- What qualities do you think God values in leaders during chaotic times, as seen in Deborah, Gideon, and Samson? How can these qualities guide us in facing personal or societal challenges?
- How does the loss of knowledge and relationship with God among subsequent generations contribute to societal decline? How can this trend be addressed within families and communities?
- What role does storytelling play in preserving and transmitting faith and values across generations? How can we actively share stories of God’s faithfulness with younger generations?
- How can we deepen our understanding of God and His work to better pass on that knowledge to others, especially the next generation?
- Reflecting on your upbringing, how have stories or experiences of faith shaped your spiritual journey?
Application Question:
- How will you commit to sharing stories of God’s faithfulness with others, particularly younger generations seeking guidance and hope?
- Take up prayer requests and pray together.
