By Pastor Kelly Mahoney, February 25, 2024

We all need a relational Savior who truly:

  1. .
2. .
3. .

Applying God's Word to Life

  1. Describe one of your happiest times in life? What made it so good?
  2. Who do you most want by your side when something great needs to be celebrated? Why?
  3. What are some of the hardest things you’ve had to deal with in life so far? 4. If something really hard comes your way, who do you most want to reach out to? Who is the least likely? Why?
  4. Who or what did you turn to in the hardest moments of your life? Why?
  5. How did people win the top spots on your call list for the great things to be celebrated or the burdens to be shared together?
  6. What are good reasons to conclude that Jesus truly understands your fears, doubts, and needs?
  7. What evidence supports the claim that Jesus cares?
  8. What kind of help does Jesus have to offer for your long and short term needs as you navigate the challenges of this life?
  9. Who and what does God want you to bring to His throne of grace right now?
  10. What burden will you invite Jesus to help you to carry right now?
