DISCUSSION QUESTIONS: 1. What “fig leaves” do you use to cover up the parts of yourself that you’re afraid others, or God, might see? In Genesis 3, Adam and Eve covered themselves with fig leaves after realizing their nakedness. Today, we often do the same emotionally or spiritually. What are some ways you’ve hidden your true self from others or God? What would it look like to stop hiding? 2.  Are you living from God’s likeness or believing the lie? The serpent told Eve that eating the fruit would make her “like God,” even though she was already made in His image. What are some lies you’ve believed about yourself that contradict your identity in Christ? How do those lies shape your relationships? 3.  What would it take for you to be “naked and unafraid” in one relationship this week? God desires us to be open, honest, and unashamed. Is there someone in your life with whom you need to be more vulnerable? What would that conversation sound like, and what’s holding you back? 4.  How does honesty lead to healing in your walk with God and others? When Adam answered God truthfully, “I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid,” it opened the door for God’s grace. Where in your life could honesty lead to freedom, healing, or restored connection? NEXT STEPS CLASS LET’S GO! [https://behope.church/hopeunleashed/] GIVING 1st Church Champion [/giving] FIRST TIME?

Grace pours out blessings that we could never deserve. * Grace isn’t just for you. It’s for them – through you. Discussion Questions: 1) How has your experience with human relationships shaped your view of God’s love? Do you find yourself trying to “earn” God’s approval? Why do you think that is? 2) Which part of the Prodigal Son story do you most relate to right now—the younger son, the older son, or the father? Why? 3) What’s the difference between showing someone mercy and showing them grace in your own relationships? Can you think of a recent situation where you were challenged to do one or the other? 4) Why is it hard for us to receive or extend grace, especially when it feels unfair? What fears or beliefs might be holding you back? 5) Who in your life is “still a long way off” that God may be calling you to move toward in grace? What might it look like to take the first step?

Why do you think that is? 3) The disciples’ eyes were opened when Jesus broke the bread. When in your life has true connection helped you recognize truth or experience Jesus more clearly? How can moments of connection—meals, long walks, shared stories—become holy moments where transformation happens? Share how God has met you through someone else’s willingness to connect.

Discussion Questions: 1) Whose will is really at work in your relationships? Jesus wrestled with “Not my will, but Yours be done” — how does this tension show up in your own life and relationships (with family, friends, dating, marriage, etc.)? What does it look like when your will takes the lead instead of God’s? 2) How does the Lord’s prayer shape your vision for healthy relationships? The Lord’s Prayer isn’t just about prayer—it’s a framework for doing life with God and others. Which part of the prayer challenges your current approach to relationships the most, and why? 3) What does “daily bread” look like in your life right now? Jesus teaches us to pray for “daily bread” — not just provision, but daily power to live out His will. What do you need God’s strength for today (e.g., patience, humility, courage, forgiveness)? Are you asking Him for it? 4) Why is forgiveness foundational, not optional? Forgiveness isn’t a one-time event, it’s a daily discipline empowered by God. What makes forgiveness difficult for you? Who might God be asking you to forgive—again? 5) Jesus didn’t just give a script—He gave a way of life: “This is how we do it.” What part of Jesus’ example (from His prayer, His relationships, or His surrender in the garden) most challenges or inspires you right now?

Discussion Questions: 1) In Psalm 23, we are told God guides us “for His name’s sake.” How does understanding that our service is ultimately for God’s name (and not our own recognition) change the way we approach serving others? 2) Jesus washed the disciples’ feet—even though it was uncomfortable and humbling. What “towels” might God be asking you to pick up today, even if it feels inconvenient or beneath you? 3) “Serving isn’t our job, it’s our joy.” How have you experienced joy through serving, and what makes serving from joy different than serving out of obligation? 4) In what ways are we tempted to seek notoriety in our acts of service rather than simply pointing people to Jesus? 5) Jesus said, “Now that you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them” (John 13:17). What do you think He meant by being “blessed” in this context, and how might serving others for His name bring blessing into both your life and theirs? NEXT STEPS CLASS LET’S GO!
