Discussion Questions

Pastor Nate emphasizes that 'deep faith is cultivated in the humble, everyday, faithful and obedient walk with Christ.' What does this daily walk look like practically in your morning routine?
How does the concept of 'small things with great love' challenge our culture's obsession with platforms, influence, and 'big things for God'?
Pastor Nate said, 'You cannot walk humbly with God while walking violently with others.' Where in your life might you be harboring contempt for people you disagree with, and how does that contradict Christ's example on the cross?
Pastor Nate mentions that his family motto was 'you're only as valuable as the last hard day's worth of work.' What unhealthy beliefs about your worth and identity might be driving your spiritual life rather than God's grace?
The text from Philippians 2 calls us to 'value others above yourself' and to look to their interests. How might this principle transform a specific relationship in your life right now?
When Jesus said, 'Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do,' he demonstrated love for his enemies. Who are the people you find hardest to love, and what would it look like to pray for their forgiveness rather than their punishment?
The sermon describes Enoch's obituary as simply 'he walked faithfully with God.' If your life were summarized in one sentence, what would you want it to say, and what needs to change for that to become reality?
