Welcome

Check In – How is everyone doing (good things, teaching applied, lessons learned, prayers answered)?

Word

• How do you remember stuff?  (Lists, reminders on your phone, memory, sticky notes)
• Read 2 Peter 1:3-12
• Why is it important to be reminded of basics in the Christian life?
• Peter tells us to have the virtues of godliness in increasing measure.  Why do we sometimes plateau on our spiritual journey?  How can we overcome it?
• What are some positive outcomes of growing in godliness?
• Peter warns that we can become nearsighted, blind and forgetful if we are not growing.  What does he mean?
• Peter tells us to “make every effort” (v. 10).  How do we balance grace and effort? How does the virtue of self-control play into this?
• What is something practical that you can do to apply this lesson?
