Are you meeting regularly with a discussion group? If you meet just once a week, you can find all of this week’s discussion questions in one place right here.

 

Question: How would you define a true friend?  Would this person be a friend to even the friendless?

Reading:

“This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends if you do what I command you. No longer do I call you servants, for the servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father I have made known to you.

(John 15:12-15 ESV)

Question: Now, how do you react to Jesus being a friend, not just a teacher?

Question: What is the most poignant symbol of friendship you’ve ever seen?

Challenge: What can you sacrifice for someone else today?  Is it a financial sacrifice, like a gift?  Is it a sacrifice of pride, admitting you were wrong?  Is it a sacrifice of time, maybe visiting someone in need?
