Read 1 Timothy 5:1-16
1. What dangers are there if our unity one with another comes through anything other than the Gospel of Jesus Christ?


2. Speaking the truth to others is hard! We fear the other persons response or even a broken relationship. Why is trust necessary in order to speak the truth in love?


3. How does knowing & caring for one another grow our trust?


4. If a church does not offer care to the vulnerable, why might this indicate poor health?


5. Consider Mark 12 and Luke 18. In what ways does Jesus call his followers to care for others?


6. Pray that God would grow us in the practical expression of our faith. Pray that he would change our desires from ‘self’ and ‘comfort’ and replace them with joy as we love those in need.
