Join us for the last message in 2025 as Pastor Landon walks us through passages in 2 Timothy and Judges to help us remember to be intentional in the way we live and invest in others. He encourages us all to walk away with this final message: The lives we live teach and model to others what we most value.
Lifegroup Questions:
- As you reflect on the year that’s ending, what word or phrase best describes it for you—and why?
- The sermon talked about unintentional influences (like favorite foods or habits). What are one or two things about you that you can trace back to your family or early influences?
- The sermon reminds us that influence isn’t limited to parents. In what ways do you see yourself influencing the next generation—positively or unintentionally—through your words, habits, or presence?
- Read Judges 2:6-10. When you hear that “another generation grew up who knew neither the LORD nor what he had done,” what stands out to you? What do you think might have gone wrong between those generations?
- Read 2 Timothy 1:1-5. Paul highlights a sincere faith passed from Lois, to Eunice, to Timothy. What differences do you notice between this passage and the story in Judges? What do those differences teach us about intentional faith?
- The sermon makes a distinction between what is taught intentionally and what is simply “caught” through proximity. In your life, what faith practices are you intentionally teaching—and what might others be catching just by watching you?
- Our calendars, spending, and routines quietly communicate what we value most. If someone observed your life for a month, what do you think they would conclude matters most to you?
- The sermon ends by asking whether our story will read more like Judges 2:10 or 2 Timothy 1:1–5. As you look ahead to the coming year, what is one intentional step you could take to live—and pass on—a sincere faith?
