MY STORY | Vulnerability
Describe a time when you received mercy when you deserved justice. How did that act of kindness impact your relationship with the giver?
DIGGING DEEPER | Practical Biblical Application
He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you (Micah 6:8a)
What would cause you to ask someone, what do you want from me?
What does it mean, (in the biblical sense), to do, or to be, good?
GROWING TOGETHER | Spiritual Friendship
But to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God? (Micah 6:8b)
Why do you think the Lord put these three things together: justice, mercy, and humility? What happens when you eliminate one of them?
How can we show mercy in the pursuit of justice without becoming a doormat?
MOVING OUTWARD | Faith in Action
What would it look like for you to express anger in a way that also demonstrated kindness?
Do that the next time the opportunity presents itself.
