Household of Faith

Discussion Questions:

1) Was there anything from the sermon or the passage that stuck out to you?

2) We tend to submit happily to God but resist submitting to imperfect people. Where in your life do you find it hardest to defer to someone who has not earned your trust?

3) Paul calls the husband to a sacrificial love that pictures Christ giving Himself for the church. What would it look like for you to give of yourself to someone without waiting for them to deserve it first?

4) We are called to honor our parents from the nursery to the nursing home, even when those parents have not been perfect. Is there a relationship where God may be asking you to show honor that does not depend on the other person being right?

5) We are quick to make people our anchor, a spouse, a parent, a job, and then we are crushed when they fail us. What person or role have you been leaning your full weight on instead of leaning on God?
