Chapter 12: Growing to Know the God You Seek

The more we get into God’s word, the more God’s word gets into us, and the more we grow.

1. According Romans 12:2 how does God’s word help transform us?

2. How have you seen evidence that God is changing you as you’ve renewed your mind through the study of His Word?

3. Look up Hebrews 10:23-25 and answer the following questions:

a. How are other believers supposed to help you in your faith?

b. How are you supposed to help others in their faith?

c. How has God used another person to encourage you in your relationship with him? Be as specific as possible.

3. Some people contend that since their faith is a personal matter, they don’t need to be part of a church. Based on the scriptures above, how would you answer this objection?

The moment you trust Christ as your Savior you are given a spiritual gift which makes you an integral part of the body of Christ. Your gift is more than a talent; it is a unique skill set given to you for the express purpose of helping others grow in their relationship with God. Each believer is to serve the other members of God’s family so that each of us can continue to grow in our knowledge and love of Christ.

4. Read 2 Corinthians 12:11-31.

a. Who gives spiritual gifts?

b. Why are the gifts given?

c. Are some gifts better than others?

5. How can you begin serving other people in Jesus’ name using your unique spiritual gifts? Write down one step you will take this week.
