Discussion Questions

As a kid, what were mealtimes like in your family? What behavior was not allowed?

Reflecting on the sermon, what were your “ah-ha” moments (did you feel convicted, compelled, or inspired during the sermon)?

Read Matthew 26:20–30. Why was it necessary for Christ’s blood to be shed in order that we receive forgiveness for our sins?

What does communion mean to you personally?

A meal is our body’s physical way of receiving the nutrition it needs. What rhythm with God might you consider implementing this week to bring you the spiritual nourishment you need?

Confession

Dear God, thank you for all that you have given us. And we acknowledge that our resources, education, technology, and jobs can give us a false sense of security. Forgive us for the ways we depend on ourselves for joy and provision rather than you and you alone. Help us know what our next step of dependence on you looks like and give us the strength to do it. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
