Crazy Love Chapter 9-10 Homework

So we come to the end. I have really grown through this study and I hope you have too. We're off next week for Thanksgiving but will start back on December 1, 2011 with a new study, "The Red Sea Rules."

Have a great Thanksgiving!

Here's the homework for chapters 9-10.


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) Do you have any fears about what it would mean if you truly followed God’s leading regardless of where He might take you? If so, take a minute to articulate those fears. What do you think God would say to those fears? Describe one or two tangible steps that could help you overcome these fears.

5) Looking back over this study, how would you say that your thoughts, emotions, and actions have been changed? If they haven’t, why not?

6)  What unique talents, gifts, and interests do you have? What do you do passionately and well? How might you be able to use these unique aspects of your makeup for the glory of God?

7) Can you think of any ways in which your unique gifts and makeup might fit well with the gifts and makeup of the other Christians around you to accomplish something greater than you could each accomplish alone?

8) What do you think God is calling you (specifically) to pursue? What nagging thoughts have stayed with you throughout this study—things you can’t get out of your mind, things you keep wondering about pursuing?

9) Without waiting for a feeling or a sense of calling, what clear commands of Jesus are you neglecting that you know you need to start obeying right now? What steps do you need to take in order to start obeying Jesus in these ways?

10) In light of everything you’ve worked through in this study, what do you think is the most important change that you can commit yourself to making?
