Are You Working Out What God’s Working In You?

Join us here for our morning service at The Grace Church. This morning, our pastor Andrew Farley presents Part 3 in our series, “Triumph in Trials.” Below are discussion questions inspired by the message on Philippians 2. 1. Read verse 3. How does genuine humility happen? How does humility reflect the heart of the gospel? 2. Read verses 4-5. How does looking out for the interests of others start to happen in our lives? How can we have this mindset? 3. Read verses 6-8. What does it mean that Christ “emptied Himself”? What do you think God is trying to tell us through this? 4. Read verses 9-11. Why is the exaltation of Christ significant to our understanding of His nature and place in our lives? What does it mean that Jesus is Lord? 5. Read verses 12 and react to this statement: Work out what God has worked in! 6. Read verse 13 and react to this statement: God doesn’t just cause us to “do” but also to “will” (or want) what He wants. 7. Read verses 14-16. From a grace perspective, how do we shine as “lights in the world”? And what does it mean to hold fast to the word of life? 8. Read verses 17-18. What does “poured out as a drink offering” mean? How can we share in joy as we encourage and build one another up?
