Now more than ever, we need to intentionally and creatively make ways to hear the good news of Christ together. You are doing hard things every day – and God is with you every step! Together @ Home is our invitation to make space to share in Christ. If you’d like a group, give us a call, or fill us in on who you are committed to meeting with! We encourage our entire FPC community into this posture of making meaningful connection.

Week 1: OCTOBER 4-10

SURVIVING THE WILDERNESS:

God provides Quail and Manna

Exodus 16:9-21

In the desert God provides what we need to make it through the day, our daily bread, and sometimes a surprise quail feast.

Questions:

• Where in this season have you been tempted to complain?
• What is a memorable feast in your life?
• Is there an abnormal abundance of something that blesses you in this season?
• What is Manna for you, what sustains you on a daily basis?
• What might be a gift from God that you do not recognize? (manna = what is it?)
• How do you trust that God will provide daily Manna again tomorrow?

Week 2: OCTOBER 11-17

SURVIVING THE WILDERNESS:

Impulsivity can lead to bad decisions

Numbers 14:39-45

Sometimes the best thing we can do is slow down and not make a quick, reactive decision.

Questions:

• How do you react to grief?
• Where can you be impulsive?
• What helps you slow down when you feel pressure to make a quick decision?
• Who are your mentors? How do you give weight to their words?
• What practices would you implement for healthier decision making?

Week 3: OCTOBER 18-24

SURVIVING THE WILDERNESS:

Intergenerational Provisions

Numbers 27

God provides. Yet the invitation remains: to actively take care of one another.

Questions:

• When have you felt cared for beyond your own family?
• How has mentorship affected your life?
• How have you been called to care for others intergenerationally, beyond your immediate family?
• What does it mean for you to trust in God’s provision?
• How do you navigate trusting God and personal action?

Week 4: OCTOBER 25-31

SURVIVING THE WILDERNESS:

In the Wilderness

Exodus 19:1-9, 20:1-21

In the wilderness God’s people were given an identity, a mission, and a code to live by, exactly what was needed.

Questions:

• How would you describe being saved by God?
• How do you understand who you are?
• How do you understand your calling?
• How do you understand how you are to live?
• How do those understandings help you to live better in a season of wilderness?
• How might you understand these things more deeply in a season of wilderness?
