TABLE TALK A dinner table discussion guide for your family and friends.

Discussion: What about Sunday’s message impacted you the most?

Scripture Engagement:

• Genesis 18
• Isaiah 51
• Hebrews 11

Main Points:

• Disappointment tempts us to try and “fix” the problem ourselves.
• “People will never be perfect, even if we think they should be or hope they will be. And not saying He wants us to sit around and let people treat us badly. But God rights injustices like nobody else. If a leader or someone you look up to has failed, you do the right thing. God will take that disrespect and turn it into honor, like He did for Sarah.”
• “Like Sarah’s, our story is one tiny piece of a huge one. Important enough that He’d show up at our tent door and call us by name, but way too vast for us to see how it all fits together. If God’s hand in Sarah’s life can take her from where she was to where she ended up, then yes, I want to be like Sarah.”

Questions for Discussion:

1. Is there any disappointment in your life you need to acknowledge?
2. In what ways do you feel inadequate? How can you take steps to trust God in that area of your life?
3. Do you believe that God is still writing your story? What are you hoping in Him for?

Praying Together:

Thank Him. What can we thank Him for?

Praise Him. What is one thing about who Jesus is that we can praise Him about?

Ask Him. What is a need we have or an area in which we would like to see God break through.

Listen to Him: What is on God’s heart about your need. What is He saying to you?
