It is our privilege, and our created purpose, to reflect God’s Glory to Him through our praise, our sacrifice, and our song. — Follow Passion City Church: https://www.instagram.com/passioncity/ Follow Louie Giglio: https://www.instagram.com/louiegiglio Passion City Church is a Jesus church with locations in Atlanta and Washington D.C. — DISCUSSION QUESTIONS // 1. When did you first hear about Passion City Church? What led you here? 2. Unpack what Peterson shared about spending and income. He said, “Financial challenge is typically a spending issue, not an income issue.” What did he mean by this? 3. How is money a “tool to be managed” rather than a lifeline to be loved? How would you explain this concept in your own words? 4. Philippians 3 contains a passage about the Apostle Paul’s view of abundance. How would you describe how “gain” is “loss” in light of Jesus? 5. Dukes reminds listeners that “Life doesn’t consist in the abundance of possessions” (Lk. 12:15). What are the things and experiences in life that lead us to forget this principle? 6. Dukes shares an amazing thought, “We can’t control the economy but we can be good stewards of what God has entrusted to us.” What are some applications you can draw from this truth? What should we concern ourselves with and what should we not be anxious about? 7. Peterson shares that it is his family’s intention to “Give in such a way that we need God to provide.” What does this approach look like and how might it help you gauge what true generosity is for your life? 8. 2 Corinthians 8:2-5 is a powerful verse about the generosity of the early Church. Read it again together and answer this question: How did the churches of Macedonia give? What was their attitude? 9. Dukes shared that it is the hope of Passion City that, while everyone gives, everyone also receives. What are all the things we receive when we live generously? 10. Peterson closes the gathering by sharing this crucial truth: “God is a giver, not a taker, and we - as His people - are to be imitators of Him.” Take a moment as a group to pray for direction around what God is calling you to invest on Above + Beyond Sunday.
