After you have watched our Prayer Resources we would encourage you to sit and reflect quietly on what the Word of God is saying to you this weekend. The questions below are simply suggestions but if you find them helpful then use them.

If you are interested  in joining a small group to share your thoughts and feelings about God's Word from any of the resources you have watched please email us.         cluster.alpha@outlook.com

Questions for reflection (framed for a group discussion)
Being a missionary disciple is not a degree course. Loving God and loving our neighbour is easily understood but extremely difficult to practise on a daily basis.
Who, what or where do you find it a challenge to love your neighbour?

Being humble is not about considering yourself worthless. It’s a fine balance between knowing your own worth and valuing others. C.S. Lewis said that humility is not thinking less of yourself but thinking of yourself less…
What do you think it means to be “gentle and humble of heart”?

“My yoke is easy…”
The image is of you and Jesus yoked together. He is the stronger of the two and will take the greater strain in your joint work together. Our biggest problem is letting Jesus take the lead in our lives and letting him take the strain.
What are your issues of trust in your relationship with God/Jesus?
