Harvest Growth Guide for August 9-14
Mike Moses
Hebrews 11:1-3  


1. What are some wrong views this world has regarding faith?
 
2.  Read Hebrews 11:1
Have you ever struggled with doubt as a Christian? What helped you in those seasons? What does the Bible say about the relationship between doubt and faith? (Consider Matthew 14:28-31, James 1:6, Mark 9:24)  

3. Read Hebrews 11:2
Why is it impossible to please God without faith? (Consider Galatians 2:20, Romans 8:7-8, 14:23, Ephesians 2:8-9)

4. Read Hebrews 11:3
Is it possible for a person without access to the Bible to understand that the universe has an unseen Creator? (See Romans 1:19-20)
 
Pray for one another: That the eyes of our hearts would clearly see God’s power and promises.
 
Weekly Scripture Memory:
"For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, 'The righteous shall live by faith.'" (Romans 1:16-17)

Harvest Growth Guide for August 2-7
Randy V Hall
Colossians 3:4-17

 
1. Paul often begins his “vice list” with sexual sins see 1 Cor 6:9; 6:18; Gal 5:19; Eph 5:5. What ways can these kinds of vices damage our Christian witness? How has the indulgence of these vices negatively affected our current society?

2. We see that the nature of the vices in v.5 are vices of thoughts whereas the vices in v.8 are vices of deeds. Which type of vices do you struggle with the most? Is there a connection between the two?
 
3. Read Colossian 3:9-11.  
What is Christ's role in empowering us to put off our old selves and put on our new selves?
 
4.  We are instructed, in v. 13, to bear with one another and forgive each other just as Christ has done for us. How are you doing in those areas? How are seeking to grow in those areas?

5. What Hymns, Psalms and or spiritual songs do you sing to remind you of the truths of God?  How and why do they encourage you so?
 
Pray for one another:  That in Christ, we would fulfill our duty towards God
