John 15:7-8

  • What stood out to me today?
  • What did I hear Jesus saying to me?

Don't look awayHow am I sharing my day with Jesus?

During the week

Stay with Jesus.

Read slowly. You do not need to answer everything. Ask Jesus to show you one thing, and stay with it.

  2. TueRomans 6:5-14

  3. 3What truth did Jesus show me about who I am in Him?
  4. 4What is Jesus asking me to do, obey, or surrender?
  5. 5Who is Jesus asking me to love?
  6. 6What do I want to bring into my Life Group?

“I encountered Jesus in prayer.”

Worship this week

Let it turn your attention.

  • Turn Your Eyes — Sovereign Grace Music
  • Rest on Us — Maverick City Music / UPPERROOM

Let worship become one of the rhythms that turns your attention back toward Jesus.

Family time

Don't walk alone.

Bring the same conversation you have been having with Jesus home. You do not need a polished answer — just an honest one.

Family practice this week

Choose one person or family your household can love this week. Pray for them by name, write down one practical need, and take one concrete step before next Sunday.

Your turn, kids — ask your parent(s)

  1. 1What rhythms are you practicing right now? Can I do them with you?
  2. 2Can you share a time when Jesus' words changed your actions, attitude or life?
  3. 3Why can't we remember what Jesus taught us? Why do we forget so easily?
  4. 4What is your favorite part of the Bible and why?

Kids, ask your parent: “When in your day do you actually talk to Jesus?”

Pray together

Jesus, open the eyes of our hearts. Help us build rhythms that make us attentive to You in ordinary life.

  • Memorize + Meditate

    Carry His words with you.
