Yahweh wanted to be King of His people and make a place for them. They rejected Him, and He warned them. He gave them what they wanted, and they became enslaved like everyone else. In 1 & 2 Kings and 2 Chronicles, people are faced with choices. Would they continue to reject the Lord and create their own high places of worship, or return to the Lord and His rightful place of worship? Would they do what was right IN THE LORD'S SIGHT as written in His word, or what was evil IN THE LORD'S SIGHT that seemed to work in the world? We face the same choices today...IN THE LORD'S SIGHT. #1kings #2kings #2chronicles #2023

Share praises and requests.
Do you want to love God and others? In addition to going to church and re:group, communicate with God and others during the week. Text, email, call, write, and meet with people. Focus on gratitude. Say, “I’m grateful to God for you, and here’s why.” Tell God and others about your brokenness, hope in Jesus, and the commitments you have made leading to transformation. You’ll find that the more obedient and grateful you are to God and the people He has placed in your life, the more you will grow and help others grow.
Remember silence is not bad. There are people who will never speak if the “speakers” constantly interrupt the silence. You may have to tell your group that :) Some of these questions are designed to move through quickly others are designed to move more slowly. It is about people engaging not getting all the answers or questions. Honor other peoples' time and end group ON TIME even if you don’t get through all the questions. Also, remember that it is ok to say I don't know, but I will try to find out.
At fxchurch, we desire to be a humble and confessional people by modeling it ourselves first. Re:groups are not a place to come to fix others but are a place to GO KNO SHO GRO in relationship to God and others. Our desire is to help people be led in a spirit of grace and truth. We will not condone sinful, selfish, or self righteous hearts and behavior. We will practice patience with others as they discover and are changed in heart and behavior. Anything that is said in the group should not be shared outside the group (unless seeking the counsel of a church leader) so gossip among group members should not take place. Above all else, have fun as you GO KNO SHO GRO.
