Exodus 14
Exodus: Into the Wilderness
Series Discussion Prompts:
-How is the Exodus story speaking to you today?
-What do you/we need to be freed from in order to experience and know God more fully? Share with others how we can create space for healing and join in standing together when tempted to “run back.”
-In what ways have we created God in our own image? What idols need confronted?
-What might the Spirit be inviting you to in order to have solitude and create space to hear from God in new ways?
-The wilderness often reveals things we don’t like about ourselves. Sit with those things; allow yourself to be disoriented.
-What do you sense God moving you toward as you mature and grow as a follower of Jesus? Share more with your Trinity group or a trusted friend.
-With gratitude, name the ways you notice God with us and the provisions you notice God gracing you/us with on our journey as a community.
