Faith Formation:  the process by which the Gospel transforms my life - thoughts, words, actions

Reflecting on your life, how has your faith been formed?  (Refer to definition above.)

Further prompts to get you thinking:
  • How has God been at work in your life?
  • How does God's love and grace affect you?  As a person?  How does it affect your whole life?
  • How is your life different because of your faith in Christ?
  • How does your faith cause you to think, speak, or act differently on a daily basis?
  • What experiences or moments have been significant in shaping your faith?
    • ...shaping how you understand God?
    • ...shaping how you understand life?
    • ...shaping how you understand or relate to other people?
  • What people in your past have played a significant role in your faith development?

Outside of worship being a part of your routine or being something that you "should do," why do you worship?  Why should we worship, outside of a sense of obligation?

Further prompts to get you thinking:
  • How did worship become a part of your routine?
  • What is most meaningful to you about worship?
  • What do you get out of worship?
  • What keeps you coming back to worship?
  • What do you hope other people would get out of worship?

Faith Formation:  the process by which the Gospel transforms my life - thoughts, words, actions

Given the definition of fatih formation provided, do the worship opportunities offered by Grace form faith?  If so, how?  If not, why not?

Further prompts to get you thinking:
  • What aspects of worship are most meaningful to you?
  • What do we do differently than other churches you have attended that you appreciate?
  • What are things you found meaningful at other worship services not at Grace that you have participated in?
  • Is there a specific worship service - regular (i.e. Sunday morning) or irregular (e.g. Ash Wednesday, Blue Christmas, Lent mid-week, etc) - that you are drawn to?  What draws you to that service?
  • What aspects of worship would you miss if they were gone?  What is important to you about it that would make you miss it?
  • How does worshipping at Grace change...
    • how you think about God?
    • how you relate to other people?
    • how you approach your daily life?
  • How is what we do in worship applicable/relevant to you?
