Gospel of John
Reading Assignment
John 16-20
Read the chapters and (1) identify what you agree or disagree with, (2) how we can apply these scriptures to our lives and (3) identify any verses they are having a hard time understanding.

Next Week - The Tuesday group will be moving to the Directionally Challenged study

1 Samuel
Bible Reading for this Week: 1 Samuel 15:1-25
Lesson 8 - Title: The Second Disobedience
  1. Why did the Lord insist on total destruction and what Saul's real reason for disobedience?
  2. Is it possible to obey the spirit of the law without obeying the letter of the law? Consider 15:1-29 and your own experience.
  3. On a scale of 1-10, how would you rate the quality of your obedience? The quality of your religious activity?
  4. What clear command has God given you that you should be obeying this week?
  5. Fear twice moved Saul to disobey God (1 Sam 13:11-12 and 15:24), Has fear led you to disobey recently? Is it tempting you to do so now? How can we overcome the fear that leads us away from trusting in God?
  6. Don't forget to select one verse this week that impacted you above the rest.
