Church at the Shores
House Like Heaven: House of Faith
"House Like Heaven" is an invitation to reimagine both our homes and our church as sacred spaces where God's presence dwells, where peace is practiced, and where prayer becomes a way of life. It is about becoming a community shaped not by hurry or performance, but by the steady formation of heaven on earth.

GROUP QUESTION FOR TODAY'S MESSAGE
1. What’s the biggest surprise you’ve ever had, good or bad?
2. Abraham said yes to God without knowing the full plan. Where in your life do you feel God calling you to trust Him without all the details?
3. Genesis 12 shows God making promises — “I will show you… I will bless you… I will make you…”How does knowing God takes responsibility for the outcome encourage your faith today?
4. Abraham left behind what was comfortable and familiar. What “comfort zones” might God be asking you to step out of in this season?
5. Abraham’s faith didn’t just impact him — it became a blessing to generations. How can your faith decisions today shape the future of your family, church, and community?
