Passage: Galatians
Summary
A good disciple isn’t someone who gets everything right— It’s someone who keeps showing up so Jesus can make them new. If that’s true—if spiritual growth doesn’t happen by accident and discipleship requires intentionality—then Paul doesn’t leave us guessing about where to begin.
Sermon Questions
- When you hear the word disciple, what images or expectations come to mind? How is that different from simply being a “churchgoer”?
- How does bearing one another’s burdens reflect the heart of Jesus? Why do you think helping others carry burdens is essential to spiritual maturity?
- How does pride keep us from honest self-examination? How does humility actually free us in our walk with Christ?
- In what ways can we “sow to the flesh” even while attending church? What habits, influences, or relationships are shaping your spiritual direction right now?
- Where do you sense God inviting you to take a next step in your discipleship? What would change in your life if you measured discipleship by faithfulness rather than perfection?
