Life Group Study - May 10th, 2026

1) Knowing God (Ephesians 1:15–19)

Speaker: Omotayo Olaleye

Say: Christianity doesn’t begin with behavior—it begins with revelation.

Ask (go slow here): What is the difference between knowing about God and truly knowing Him? Where has your faith become more informational than relational? What would it look like to grow in spiritual awareness and understanding? How do we position ourselves to actually know God deeper?

Reflection Thought:  You can know a lot about God… and still not walk closely with Him.

2) God’s Rescue Mission (Ephesians 2:4–7)

Speaker: Amy Nash

Say: Before we ever moved toward God… He moved toward us.

Ask: What does it mean that God’s love initiated your rescue? Where do you still live like you have to earn what was freely given? How does remembering your rescue shape your identity? Why is it hard to live from grace instead of striving?

Reflection Thought: You don’t perform your way into grace—you live from it.

3) Walking Worthy (Ephesians 4:1–4)

Speaker: Jessica Iga

Say: Grace leads to transformation. Calling leads to responsibility.

Ask: What does it actually mean to “walk worthy” in your daily life? Where is there a gap between your calling and your lifestyle? How do humility, patience, and unity show up practically? What does it look like to reflect Christ in everyday interactions?

Reflection Thought: Your calling is not just something you believe—it’s something you live.

4) Growing Into Maturity (Ephesians 4:11–15)

Speaker: Shelby Van Maanen

Say: Spiritual maturity is not automatic—it is intentional.

Ask: What does maturity in Christ actually look like? Where do you feel spiritually stagnant or immature? How do we move from being consumers to contributors? What does it mean to “grow up” into Christ in every area?

Reflection Thought: Maturity is measured not by time—but by transformation.
