KEY SCRIPTURE Luke 12:19-21 “I’m set, I have plenty of good things laid up for myself for many years. I’ll take life easy; eat, drink and be merry.” But God said to him, “You fool! You will die this very night. Then who will get everything you worked for? Yes, a person is a fool to store up earthly wealth but not have a rich relationship with God.”
NOTES
Matthew 6:21 “Wherever your treasure is, there your heart will also be.”
DISCUSSION GUIDE
A KEY SIGN OF SPIRITUAL MATURITY is when you go from just attending church and receiving its messages to becoming an owner by serving, giving and being a part of the mission of reaching others for Christ. There’s no greater cause on earth than what God is doing through the church, and we need people like you to help.
DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1. How did you start coming to Eagle Brook? Did someone invite you? What would your life look like if you hadn’t started attending or if the campus you attend didn’t exist? 2. Someday we will all stand before God. How would you like to answer His question, “What did you do with your one and only life?” In order to answer that question how you’d like to, what in your life needs to change right now? 3. How bold are you in inviting people to church? Pastor Bob talked about “The 3 Nots” that come up in everyday conversations: “I’m not in church.” “I’m not connected.” “I’m not doing well.” Has anyone in your life recently said one of these things? Will you boldly invite them to church this week? 4. When you’re an owner at Eagle Brook, you start to provide for others what others have provided for you through serving, giving and inviting others to church. How would our church look today if everyone supported it in the same way you do? What next step could you take this month to raise your level of ownership at church?
