Conversation Starters help us dig deeper, connecting Sunday’s sermons with our Monday lives. Please know that these questions are meant to be a resource. 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. Share a story of someone you know who made a significant change in their life.
2. Read John 16:1-15 silently or aloud.
3. Jesus tells his disciples that it is to their advantage that he goes away so that the Helper (the Holy Spirit) will come. How has the Holy Spirit made a difference in your life? How are you different than you were before you came to follow Christ?
4. What do we learn about Jesus in this passage?
5. What does this passage say about what it means for believers to follow Jesus as king?
6. How does this passage encourage and/or challenge you?
PRAYER PROMPT
Spend time praising God for his work in your life and spend time asking the Spirit to work in the hearts and minds of those in your lives who do not yet know Jesus.

> It is better Jesus left because…
- Our Helper convicts the world
- Our Helper guides God’s people

The Holy Spirit convicts us of our sin, comforts us, guides us, gives us spiritual gifts and the desire to obey God; and he enables us to pray and to understand God’s Word.
