Opener: Second service in Lacey, we were able to witness Willow Reep's baptism. Share your baptism story.
Verse 6 is key to understanding why chapters 17-18 are recorded in the Bible. What are some of the evidences that our society struggles with the same thing Israel did back then? Why are humans bad at determining what is "right" as opposed to God? The young Levite seems to pursue material comfort over serving God. In what ways does seeking material comfort disrupt your spiritual life? What is God asking you to do about it? Micah seems to think God will have to bless him since he has a Levite priest. How do we use God as a "good luck charm" instead of our Lord and Savior? How are we guilty of trying to manipulate God? The priest tells the Danites they will fare well without even asking God. We likened it to 2 Timothy 4:3. Read 2 Timothy 4:1-5: How are some churches like this? What solution does Paul provide to Timothy for this issue? What should a believer do if they find themselves in this type of church? The author lists the "carved image, the ephod, the household gods, and the metal image" four times. Why do you think he kept repeating the whole list? What doctrines are you tempted to be embarrassed by? Why is it such a struggle for man to submit to what God calls sin? What else did you hope to discuss? What was curious or stuck out?
