This is a small group/devotional series I created a couple of years ago while working in Las Vegas, Nevada. I hope it sparks thoughts and conversation in your lives as well. Enjoy.
Open Up
1. Have you ever experienced the “wildness” of the West?
2. Followers of Jesus are often considered anything but wild? In fact many people consider the Christian life boring. How were the lives of Jesus and those around him wild or radical? In what other ways do you see God being “wild” in Scripture?
3. Does your view of your identity limit or expand the possibilities of your life?
Digging In
1 John 3:1-2: Who are your parents? How have the shaped your identity? How does it change your perspective on your daily life when you consider yourself a child of the king?
1 John 3:6 What does this passage mean? Does God expect us to live perfect lives?
1 John 3:9-10 How should being a child of God affect the way we live our lives? How does the way you live your life reflect on your eternal Father?
Living Out
1. What would you do if your were the child of the president, the son of a world leader or daughter of a king? What can you do to make a difference as a child or God?
2. In what way is it freeing to place your identity solely in God?
3. How can you live our your faith in a wild way this week? What frightens you when you think of this?
