Life Group Study - March 1st, 2026

1) The Heart of God — He Moves Toward the One

Read: Luke 15:3–7, 2 Peter 3:9

Say: God doesn’t see crowds — He sees individuals. The shepherd moves because the one matters.

Ask: What does this story reveal about God’s priorities? Why does heaven celebrate one person? How does this challenge how we view evangelism? Who did God use to reach you personally?

Living Room Challenge #1 — Burden Test

Ask yourself: “Do I feel anything for the one I wrote down?”

If not: Ask God to give you His compassion, Pray for His eyes, not just strategy. Because you cannot invite someone you don’t care about..

2) The Pattern of Invitation — People Reach People

Read: John 1:40–42, Romans 10:13–15 Andrew meets Jesus → finds Peter.m Faith spreads relationally.

Ask: Who are you spiritually responsible for relationally? Why is personal invitation powerful?
What fears keep you from moving toward your one? What’s harder — noticing or acting?

Living Room Challenge #2 — Visibility Step

This week: Make your one visible daily: Phone wallpaper, Bathroom mirror, Car dashboard, Bible/journal You cannot forget what you see daily.

3) Presence Before Proclamation

Read: Matthew 9:36–38: Jesus saw people before He spoke to them.

Ask: Where are you too busy to notice people? How does distraction compete with compassion? What would it look like to slow down relationally? How does Presence > Preference apply here?

Living Room Challenge #3 — Listen First

This week:

Learn ONE thing about your one:
