Lean In:

• Is there a project you worked on that made you proud? 
  
• What kind of work and creativity was invested into that project? 
  

Look Out:

• How do you see people in our culture “reproducing” themselves in others — intentionally or not? (e.g. through social media, celebrity influence, workplace culture, parenting, etc.)
  

Look Down: READ Mark 6:30-44

• What stands out in these verses or from the weekend message?

• Who in your life has modeled Christlike attitudes or behaviors? 
  
• How have they impacted the way you live and think? 
  
• In what ways do you try to model Christ in your life for those around you?  
  

2. GROW

• How do you learn best (in a classroom study, personal study on your own, experiences, etc)?
  
• READ MATTHEW 5:1-10 and MATTHEW 8:1-3 - What training/teaching approaches do see Jesus use in these verses? 
  
• How have you engaged in “training” for your spiritual growth? 
  
• Where and how would you like to grow spiritually? 
  
• What training opportunities can you leverage to meet those goals? 
  

3. GO

• In what ways do you feel like you have grown the most or experienced the most victory in your Christian life? 
  
• How are you using the lessons you have learned to impact the lives of others? 
  
• READ 2 TIMOTHY 2:2 - What stands out? What convicts? What Inspires? 
  
• Where could you serve that reflects what God has done in your life? 
  
• What’s holding you back? 
  
• Is there someone you’ve been pouring into who’s ready to lead others? How can you help launch them into that?
