Key Truth: Jesus calls us to follow him in love.

Luke 10:25-37

Introduction: 

How do you tend to define love?
What are the strongest examples of love you have personally experienced in life?

The Scope of Love 

Where am I most prone to limit the scope of love in my life?
What group or type of people in my life do I most struggle to love?
How might I/we grow in our ability to love all of those that God brings into our lives?

The Nature of Love 

Where does self-sacrifice seem most costly for me?
What makes sacrifice in that area of my life so difficult?
Can I think of what self-sacrifice would look like for specific people in my life, perhaps especially for those I struggle to love?

The Possibility of Love

Am I trying to love others while refusing God’s love me in Christ?
How might Jesus’s love for me free me or change me with respect to the areas I struggle to love in terms of scope and sacrifice?
