CONVERSATION STARTERS
Conversation Starters help us dig deeper, connecting Sunday’s sermons with our Monday lives. These prompts have been designed to help Community Groups grow in their relationship with God, with one another, and with their neighbors. Please know that these questions are meant to be a resource to you. You do not have to follow them verbatim or get through them all. We trust you to know your group and to ask the questions based on your group needs.

1) How did this parable come alive for you in a new way after listening to the sermon?

2) Luke 10:29 shows that the lawyer was looking for an answer to his question that confirmed his existing convictions. What are some ways we do this today? How can we avoid seeking to justify ourselves and instead seek to let scripture confront us?

3) Read Luke 10:34. What are some practical ways we can care for other people, even if it means giving up our own comforts and preferences?

4) Consider the quote by Bryan Loritts “Proximity breeds empathy. Distance breeds suspicion.” Can you think of a time when the closer you got to the situation, your perspective grew and your empathy deepened?

5) Who is one “neighbor” that God may be calling you to show generosity and love toward?

Scripture: Luke10:25-37
Speaker: Reid Kapple, ReidK@ChristCommunityKC.org

>> Get close enough to care
“I am convinced that men hate each other because they fear each other. They fear each other because they don’t know each other, and they don’t know each other because they don’t communicate with each other, and they don’t communicate with each other because they are separated from each other.” - Dr. Martin Luther King Jr
>> Give enough to love our neighbors
1. Steward your resources wisely
2. Give...then give more
3. Do your work well for your neighbors
