Open The Door

DISCUSS & ENGAGE THE SCRIPTURES

  1. What did God show you through reading and thinking about the different translations of Matthew 11:28-30?

  2. What did you discover as you reflected on your notes? (Examples: areas where you’ve seen growth, things you may have forgotten about, something God highlighted that you haven’t implemented yet).

    If you are newer to Valley Creek and didn’t have notes to look back on, what did you discover as you reflected on who you are becoming and who you want to become?

  3. Share your summary statement of this season that you wrote down during our reflection time.

  4. Read Revelation 3:20. What door(s) is God knocking on and inviting you to let Him in?
