Personal & Small Group Study

MY STORY
Do you have brothers or sisters? What is/was your relationship with them like? If you don’t have siblings, how do you think your life might have been different if you had?

Are you (or your kids) more like mom or dad?

QUICK REVIEW
This past Sunday, we talked about the idea that we are all created in the image of God. (Genesis 1:27) Do you find this comparison easy or more difficult to embrace? Why?

DIGGING DEEPER
READ Genesis 2:18-25
Why do you think that God brought every living thing to Adam to name, and then say, “But for Adam no suitable helper was found”?

God could have made the woman literally out of anything he wanted. READ vs. 22 again and talk about the significance you see in the woman being made from part of the man.

READ Psalm 139:13-16
How does this passage address what was said on Sunday? (We are created with INTENTION. Male and Female are NOT INTERCHANGEABLE)

READ Ephesians 2:10
How does this verse speak to someone who is unhappy or dissatisfied with the way that God created them?

TAKING IT HOME
READ Romans 8:3
What do you think that it means for Jesus to be sent “… in the likeness of sinful flesh”? Why do you think it was necessary?
