Our small group discussions follow a simple rhythm designed to help us move from understanding Scripture to living it out.
Head (What do I see?)
We start by looking at the passage and the message. This helps us understand what the Bible is actually saying before we jump to opinions or application.
Heart (What does this mean for me?)
Next, we reflect on how God’s Word connects to our lives. This is about honesty—what stood out, what challenged us, and what we’re feeling or wrestling with.
Hands (How do I respond?)
Finally, we talk about action. Faith isn’t just something we think or feel—it’s something we live. This step helps us consider what trusting Jesus looks like in real life this week.
The goal isn’t to have the “right” answers—it’s to listen, reflect, and take a step toward following Jesus together.
HEAD (What do I see?)
What part of John the Baptist’s story or message stood out to you the most — and why do you think that part caught your attention?
John’s message was, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” What do you notice about how simple and direct his message was? Why do you think that mattered?
HEART (What does this mean for me?)
When you think about your own voice — your words, posts, jokes, conversations — what do you think they reveal about what matters most to you right now?
Have you ever felt a moment where you wanted to speak up about your faith but stayed quiet? What made that moment difficult?
HANDS (How do I respond?)
John used his voice to prepare people for Jesus. What might it look like for someone your age to use their voice to point people toward Jesus in everyday life?
This week’s challenge was to write your one-minute story. Which part feels hardest right now?
Thinking about what to say
Sharing something personal
Feeling like your story matters
Knowing when to share it
Is there anything from tonight you want to keep thinking about, praying about, or asking God to help you with this week?
