Looking Above - Episode 12

It's Galentines Day, what better day to discuss how we love our girlfriends better?  I enjoyed my discussion, with my friend Sara McCormick, the youth pastor at New Life.  I hope this episode encourages you to love your friends well!

 

Discussion Questions:

  1. Who followed through on the "to-do" task from last week and reached out to those in their circles? How did that go?
  2. Tell the group a story about a friend who loved you well.  What did that look like?
  3. Take a few minutes to re-cap the five love languages. Share some ideas of how you have seen these love languages used well in friendships.
  4. What is your primary love language?  How could your friends use your love language to show you, love?
  5. Re-read John 13:34-35. Why are we to love each other well?
  6. Talk about how Jesus loved his disciples/friends.  Can you give examples of his love in action?
  7. If we are to follow Jesus' example, how should we love our friends?
  8. Have you ever been in a situation, like Sara, where you were struggling but didn't tell your friends?  Why didn't you tell them?  How might the situation have been different if you had been honest with your friends?
  9. What keeps us from being honest with friends?
  10. Time to get honest...how are you doing with friendships? Do you and your friends show each other love well?  If not, why not?
  11. How could this group show you love?
  12. Reflect back on your circles from last week.  Do you know the love languages of the friends in your circles?

    13. The Takeaway:  In order to love each other well, friends need to communicate well.

    To-Do this Week: Start having conversations with the friends in your circles, ask them how can you better love each other?
