SESSION 2: HOW DO WE KNOW AND TRUST GOD? (February 17)


Session Three/Four: Who Is Your Lord?

How Do We Reject Sin?

​• How do you react to hearing that the health of Peruvians in La Oroya is directly related to the things you buy and use?
• In what ways are you aware of brokenness in the world, whether in your community or in other parts of the world?
• Based on video 3, how do we turn from sin and the power of evil?

How Is Jesus Your Lord?

​In Rome, the emperors were considered to be gods. Romans required all the peoples that they conquered not only to honor their emperor but also to worship him as a god and call him “Lord.” That was a line that neither Jews nor Christians were willing to cross. They would not call Caesar “Lord,” and they would not bow down to worship him.
These ruins are what is left of a fountain in the city of Ephesus. The fountain was built in the second century to honor Roman Emperor Trajan. It included a huge statue of Trajan. These words were inscribed on it: “I am the ruler of the world. The world is under my foot.” Ironically, today only Trajan’s foot and a globe remain.
Discuss: • According to Lisa, how does Jesus as Lord show us who God is? • How does claiming Jesus as Lord and Savior reorient our lives to God? • Based on the video, why should you follow Jesus as Lord?
