What things might you be
said to be fixated on / engrossed by / obsessed with?
What are your first
thoughts when you wake up?
Or your day dreams?
What are you distracted by?
What do you consciously devote
your time and energies to?
What do you pursue?
How would an independent outside
observer with access to a video of all your life (your mobile phone and your bank
account) assess these things?
How’s your celebration of
Christmas?
In what ways is Jesus
involved? Or side-lined?
Introduction
Do you have Christian heroes
who inspire you to wholehearted devotion to Jesus? Who? How?
(Maybe you should think
about reading some Christian history or biographies – see e.g. https://www.10ofthose.com/uk/products/christian-life/biography)
What do you find helps or
hinders your devotion to Jesus and your keeping going in the Christian life?
Key Bible verses: Hebrews
12:1-3 (Suitable for memorisation?)
Song: By Faith We See The
Hand of God https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0rYiZRj0FbA
Do you feel like you’re consciously,
actively running the Christian race?
What sort of pace do you
feel you are going at? Why?
Are your thoughts fixed on
Jesus? (Hebrews 3:1)
How could we increasingly
fix them there? Or help one another to do so?
