Philippians 2:1-10

Reflection Questions:

Bob Schwahn | Lead Pastor | November 23, 2025

Referenced Scripture:
Acts 1:3-8, 1 Peter 2:12, John 4:39-42

Reflection Questions:
1. Was there something from the sermon that stood out to you? Explain.

2. When you hear that you are God’s plan A to TELL the world that Jesus is King and to SHOW what the world what the Kingdom of Jesus looks like, how do you respond to that? Thoughts, emotions, desires??? Why?

3. How have you seen God use you as a witness for Jesus and His Kingdom? How would you desire to see God use you? Explain.

4. What challenges or barriers have you faced in being a witness for Jesus? What would it take for you to overcome those challenges?

5. Being a ‘witness’ means we SHOW and TELL. We SHOW the world what the Kingdom of Jesus looks like and we TELL the world how to make Jesus their King. Why is both SHOWING and TELLING essential to help people come to faith in Jesus and to follow Him?

6. In Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5-7) he outlines what His Kingdom looks like. Read through that and make observations of what the world looks like when Jesus is King.Is that a compelling vision of the world to you? Do you imagine it would be compelling to others? Explain.

7. When telling the story of your life of faith, why would it be important to share authentically (joys, challenges, questions, failures, hope)? What is the cost of not being authentic about our faith?

8. Read John 4 about the Samaritan women. What made her an unlikely candidate for being a witness for Jesus? How did God use her INVITE to change the world?

9. Read John 4:39-42 How could God use you to INVEST and INVITE someone in your world to “come and see” the King and the Kingdom? Who are at least 5 people you could pray for and invite to join you at Journey between now and Christmas?

Reflection Questions:
1. What does it mean that “the Spirit helps us in our weakness”? What kinds of weakness might Paul be referring to here?

2. Why do you think Paul includes himself when he says “helps us” instead of “helps you”? What does that reveal about humility and dependence?

3. In what areas of life do you feel your weakness most — physically, emotionally, spiritually, relationally?

4. How do you usually respond when you feel weak — do you hide it, push through, or bring it before God?

5. Have you ever had a time when you didn’t know what to pray for? How did God meet you in that moment?

6. What comfort does it bring to know that both Jesus and the Holy Spirit are interceding for you?

7. Who might God be prompting you to intercede for right now — to pray for, reach out to, or stand beside?

Bob Schwahn | Lead Pastor | November 9, 2025

Referenced Scripture:
Romans 5:3-5, Romans 8:15-35, Psalm 34:18, Hebrews 5:7-8, Hebrews 4:15-16

Reflection Questions:
1. How have you experienced pain and suffering in this life? How have you seen suffering in the lives of people that you love? Share some specific examples from your life.

2. What questions come to your heart and mind when you walk through pain and suffering? What questions do you have about God when you are suffering?

3. How does suffering affect your view of God? Do you experience Him as closer or further away? Do you tend to move closer to Him or do you tend to move away? Explain.

4. Read Romans 8:2828 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
In what ways have you seen pain and suffering either challenge or grow your faith? How has suffering produced good things in your life? How has it changed you for the better? Share some specific examples.

5. How would you describe the biblical practice of lament? Why do you think lament is so prominent in the psalms? What does this tell us about the reality and normalcy of experiencing suffering?

6. What benefits can you see in praying laments to God? How have you found praying lament helpful in your life? What has been your experience?

7. Recall the illustration from the sermon of the hand in front of your face (circumstances/suffering):Why is it important to focus on the hand (name and acknowledge the reality of your suffering) and focus on the distance (God’s character/promises/faithfulness and future redemption of all things)?

8. Read Psalm 22 (a psalm of lament)What parts focus on the pain/suffering of life (hand) and what parts focus on the faithfulness of God (distance)? Why do you think it is important to identify and name both of those clearly when we are praying lament?

9. What is a situation of pain and suffering in your life right now? Write a short psalm (prayer) of lament focusing both on the challenge and complaint as well as the character of God and your trust in Him.

10. Read Romans 8…What promises are contained in this chapter that are helpful to understand when we are going through suffering?

Bob Schwahn | Lead Pastor | November 2, 2025

Referenced Scripture:
Romans 8:1, Romans 8:38-39, Romans 8:22-25, John 1:14,

Reflection Questions:
1. Read Romans 8:22-25 Paul describes that we along with the whole creation groan inwardly for the redemption of all things. How specifically have you experienced the groaning of this life? How have you experienced the longing for heaven and redemption of all things? How have you experienced times of the Kingdom of heaven breaking into your life?

2. 1 Corinthians 6:19 Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? In this current age we are the temples of the Holy Spirit and God’s plan to bring heaven to earth.How do you see God using you to bring heaven to earth? What makes that challenging for you? What would you need to change in order to see God use you more?

3. John 14:12 Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. What did Jesus mean that we would do greater things than he had been doing?

4. Take some time to read briefly over the Sermon on the Mount. (Matthew 5-7) This is Jesus teaching on what the Kingdom of Heaven looks like. What are some things you observe as values of God’s Kingdom? Where do you see places that God needs to change you to reflect these values? What is the role of the Holy Spirit in bringing about this change in the life of a follower of Jesus?

Jim Keena | Guest Speaker | October 19, 2025

Referenced Scripture:
Romans 8:17-21, John 6:66-69, 2 Corinthians 4:17

Reflection Questions:
1. When have you faced a difficult situation that ultimately proved to be “worth it”?

2. Read Romans 8:17-21 aloud together. According to verse 17, what does it mean to be an “heir of God and co-heir with Christ”? Why does Paul connect being a child of God with sharing in Christ’s sufferings as well as His glory?

3. In verse 18, Paul states that our current sufferings “are not worth comparing” with future glory. What could make it difficult for us to believe this in your life today?

4. Romans 8:18 speaks of the Christian’s future glorification, when we will become a “perfected people”. Read and respond to the following definition: “In glorification, believers attain complete conformity to the image and likeness of the glorified Christ and are freed from both physical and spiritual defect. Glorification ensures that believers will never again experience bodily decay, death, or illness, and will never again struggle with sin.

5. Jim used the illustration of holding a 3x5 card marked “suffering” close to his eyes before moving it away to gain perspective. What helps you keep the proper perspective on suffering? How can others assist you in this?

6. Romans 8:19–21 depict creation yearning for renewal. What does this reveal about the extent of God’s redemption? Romans 8 shows that both believers and creation are longing for freedom. How can we live today as people who hold onto hope in a world still affected by decay?

Brian Priebe | Executive Pastor | October 12, 2025

Referenced Scripture:
Romans 8:14-17a, John 1:12-13, Galatians 3:26, 1 John 3:1a, 1 Peter 2:9a, Ephesians 1:4-5a

Reflection Questions:

1) Read Romans 8:14-17a, John 1:12-13 and Galatians 3:26. All give us clarity as to our identity as Jesus followers. What insights stand out to you about these passages? Would you add any passages to this list? What does it mean to be a child of God?

2) Our culture teaches us to find our identity or to create our identity by achievement. Where do you see in your life or in the lives around you evidence of achievement creating or supporting identity?

3) Read 1st John 3:1, 1st Peter 2:9 and Eph 1:4-5. Each describes God's love for his children. Describe what stands out to you about God's love. Would you add other scriptures that emphasize God's love for his children?

4) As God's children what does it look like to receive his love for us? Is that something that is or was challenging for you? In what ways do you actively receive God's love?
