Week 2 – A People Shaped by Their Shepherd

Apr 19, 2026 | Thessalonians

  1. Paul says he shared “not only the gospel of God but our own lives as well.” What does it look like in a practical sense to share your life (not just beliefs) with others? Where do you see that happening—or not happening—in your relationships?
  2. The sermon emphasized that “the gospel grows where believers share their souls.” What tends to keep your relationships at a surface level? What would it take for you to take one step deeper with someone?
  3. Paul uses family language—gentle like a mother, encouraging like a father—to describe Christian community. Which of those do you most need right now: care, encouragement, or challenge? How might God want to provide that through others?
  4. Where do you sense an invitation this week: to join community, to go deeper in vulnerability, or to invest more intentionally in others? What is one specific step you can take?
