Crazy Love Chapter 6 Homework

Very good session this week. I know these can be tough questions to answer honestly but remember these are not designed to make you feel guilty. They're designed for you to determine where you are in your relationship with God so you can grow in your faith.

Have a great week. I'll see you Thursday.

Homework:

1) Look at last week’s prayer life and compare it to what you thought it “should” have looked like.

2) Write down what you believe your prayer life should look like for this coming week.

3) Spend 30 seconds at the beginning of each prayer listening to God.

4) Consider the difference between serving God out of love versus obligation. How does obedience to God change as our love for God grows?

5) Does the Christian life feel free to you? Or do you feel bound to obey a system of moral commands?

6) Which is more difficult for you, relating to God with intimacy or approaching Him with reverence? Why do you think this is more difficult for you?

7) Think of 3 interactions with people that you’ve had recently that would not be best characterized by love. Explain why they weren’t. Explain why they should have been. How would they have gone differently if you had?

8) In prayer, honestly tell God how you feel about Him (Good/Bad/Difficulty/Confused); be honest. Tell Him that you want Him to change you.

9) Think of 2-3 difficult areas in your life. Write down what it means that God has already overcome them. With this knowledge, how should you be handling them?


10) Watch the videos for Chapter 7.
