MEMBER GROUPS
To equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ...
Ephesians 4:12
The following questions are for the use of our BBC Member Group meetings. For our large group gatherings, we review the passage that was just preached the Sunday prior and apply it to our lives that week (James 1:22-25).

Read Hebrews 11:23-31 and then answer the following questions
Choice #1 – Make Decisions Based on God’s Purposes
1. Moses’ parents chose God’s purposes over Pharaoh’s commands. Where are you currently tempted to prioritize safety, comfort, or approval over obedience to God?
2. How does fear of other people show up in your everyday life? What would it look like to fear God more in those same situations?
Choice #2 – Identify with Christ Rather Than the World
3. Where are you most tempted to “blend in” rather than clearly identify with Christ?
4. Moses evaluated suffering with Christ as greater wealth than Egypt’s treasures. How do you normally evaluate success and comfort? How do evaluate suffering?
Choice #3 – Leave the World Behind While Still in It
5. Moses’ heart left Egypt before his feet did. Has your heart fully “checked out” of this world—or are there areas where it’s still deeply attached?
6. How does regularly “looking up” to the invisible God help you endure ongoing difficulty or opposition?
Choice #4 – Trust the Blood of the Lamb
7. How does believing in a coming judgment shape the way you live today?
8. What would it look like for you to keep “trusting the blood” rather than moving on from the gospel?
Choice #5 – Follow God Through the Sea
9. When faced with hardship, are you more tempted to turn back to “Egypt” or to step forward in trust? What does that look like practically?
10. How does remembering God’s past faithfulness help you trust Him in present uncertainty?
Choice #6 – Depending on God’s Power Over Human Strategy
11. Where in your life or ministry are you relying more on strategy, efficiency, or control than prayerful dependence on God?
12. What “slow, inefficient, or foolish” acts of obedience might God be calling you to embrace right now?
Choice #7 – Rely on God’s Grace and Mercy in Spite of Self
13. Rahab, the prostitute, found a full entrance into the people of God. If time allows, take a moment to share how Jesus rescued you from sin and made you a part of God’s family.
