Bible Reading Convos (Matthew 11-15)

Here are the Formation Questions from Matthew 11-15, along with our B.O.L.D. living Rule of Life challenges to prayerfully practice throughout the week.

SURRENDERED TO JESUS:

▶️ Where has Jesus failed to meet my expectations, and how might He be inviting me to trust Him more deeply?

▶️ What burden am I carrying that belongs under His yoke rather than on my shoulders?

▶️ What competing desire may be choking the growth of God’s word in me?

SENT ON MISSION:

▶️ Who might our assumptions or traditions cause us to overlook?

▶️ Where can I bring Jesus’ mercy into someone’s grief, fear, or scarcity?

COMMITTED TO ONE ANOTHER:

▶️ Are we using truth to restore people or merely to evaluate them?

▶️ How can our community make room for honest questions without losing confidence in Jesus?

B.O.L.D. LIVING RULE OF LIFE:

BE WITH & BLESS OTHERS:

▶️ Spend time with someone carrying grief, disappointment, or doubt

▶️ Listen before (or maybe without) offering answers

OBSERVE & OBEY THE HOLY SPIRIT:

▶️ Ask the Spirit to reveal one tradition, expectation, or inner desire that may be causing me to resist fully submitting to Jesus

LOVE & LIVE LIKE JESUS:

▶️ Choose one parable from Matthew 13

▶️ Identify what response it calls for and practice that response this week

DEMONSTRATE & DECLARE THE KINGDOM OF GOD:

▶️ Offer one resource—time, food, money, prayer, or attention—to someone facing scarcity
