What’s one small act of kindness someone did for you that you still remember?

Talk It In

What does this reveal about who God is?

I. Read Ephesians 5:1–2 & John 13:34–35

1. In what specific ways has Jesus loved you personally? Be specific.
2. Why does Jesus make love the defining mark of His disciples? What would change in our church or community if we truly loved this way?

II. Read Romans 12:9–13

1. How is genuine love described? What does that reveal about God’s heart?

Talk About It

How do we practically apply this?

III. Read Romans 12:9–10

1. Have you ever experienced “fake love?” What effect did it have on you? What does genuine love look like instead?
2. Is there anything blocking you from hating what is wrong and clinging to what is good in your relationships?

IV. Read Romans 12:11–13

1. What stands out to you about how love requires enthusiasm, patience, prayer, and hospitality? Where is God stretching you right now?

Take It Home

What are we doing this week?
