The Passage: Isaiah 40:1-6
The One Thing: Joy transforms praise into proclamation
- Why do you think so many of us are afraid of “proclaiming” Jesus to others?
- How might joy be the missing component in transforming us from loving God IN HERE (privately) to loving others OUT THERE (publicly)?
- Should we share the gospel if duty or guilt it our only motivation? (Use scriptures to support your answer)
- Have you ever had an experience of God that has led to you not caring what others think of you? If so, share what that was like?
- Look at the “evangelistic message” of the woman at the well in John 4:29 (“Come, see a man who told me everything I ever did. Could this be the Messiah?”) How does this differ from the stereotypical evangelistic message? Why do you her message was compelling?
- If you were to take this message as a template for you, how would you complete it: “Come, see a man who told me / showed me (fill in the blank). Could this be (fill in the blank)?” How could you see yourself using this “Come / could” model in your own context?
