​Things to Consider: (Feel free to read Scripture passages that God brings to mind as you work through these questions)

1. What about the sermon challenged, encouraged, or confused you? What, if anything, would you like further clarification on?
2. ​Which item from Paul’s laundry list of graceful actions do you find the hardest to abide by and what do you suppose hinders you?
3. What makes surrendering to Spirt-led grace so difficult?
4. What does surrender look like in action?
5. Has the Holy Spirit placed someone on your heart to address with grace? If so, will you surrender? 
6. If you won’t surrender, how does that reflect to the world and to the spiritual realms? 
7. If you will surrender, when will you address that person with the grace He is leading you to?
8. What’s your plan to do so?
