VISION

...........................................................................

[ Begin with sharing for one or two minutes the purpose behind T-Groups. You can do this by answering the question, "What is discipleship and why do we do it?", by sharing a Scripture about discipleship (such as Matthew 28:18-20, 2 Timothy 2:2, etc.), or asking them to share in their own words why they think discipleship is important and how it might lead to transformation ]

...........................................................................

FELLOWSHIP (about 30 minutes)

...........................................................................

1) What is a high and a low in your life since the last time we met?

2) What is something God has been highlighting to you through ADT this week?

3) How did your spiritual disciplines go this week? Let's fill out our accountability charts and recite our Scripture memorization passage.

4) Is there any sin you need to bring to the light so that God can bring healing in that area?

MATTHEW 20:20-28

Request for Preferred Treatment

20 Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came to Jesus with her sons, bowing down and making a request of Him.

21 And He said to her, “What do you desire?” She said to Him, “Say that in Your kingdom these two sons of mine shall sit, one at Your right, and one at Your left.”

22 But Jesus replied, “You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I am about to drink?” They said to Him, “We are able.”

23 He said to them, “My cup you shall drink; but to sit at My right and at My left is not Mine to give, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared by My Father.”

24 And after hearing this, the other ten disciples became indignant with the two brothers.

25 But Jesus called them to Himself and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles domineer over them, and those in high position exercise authority over them.

26 It is not this way among you, but whoever wants to become prominent among you shall be your servant,

27 and whoever desires to be first among you shall be your slave;

28 just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many.”
