Authority in Action (Luke 4:31-44)
Community Group Prompts and Discussion Questions
Helping one another love Jesus, His people, and His world

Loving Jesus
1. In what ways do you try—subtly or openly—to “manage” Jesus for your own purposes? What would it look like for you to release control, trust his will, and surrender your expectations?
Loving His People
2. We ask the following in order to join you: What is one place of suffering (your own or someone else’s) where Jesus is inviting you to pray boldly for his healing mercy?
Loving His World
3. What would it look like for us to expect Jesus to show his authority when we minister to unbelievers—whether by praying for their needs, offering Scripture, or demonstrating Christlike compassion?
