Don’t pursue the kingdom of self’s destructive attitudes and behavior. (Galatians 5:19-21)
Pursue the kingdom of God’s fruitful attitudes and behavior. (Galatians 5:22-23)
1. How did it go applying what you learned last week? 2. What happened during the last seven days for which you are thankful? 3. What did you hear in the sermon that was surprising, challenging, troubling, or useful? Explain.
4. Read Galatians 5:19-26 aloud (in two different versions if possible). a. What did you like about the passage? What questions do you have about it?
b. What does this passage tell you about God?
c.
What does it tell you about humankind?
