March 10, 2019

Forward

Do you find yourself searching for belonging and purpose? Are you fumbling between tasks, jobs, and relationships, longing for fulfillment? You are invited to discover the ways in which your life matters, YOU MATTER, here and now. We’re excited to worship with you each week and experience this powerful sermon series through April 14.

Title: “Eliminating Entitlement”

Genesis 25:27-34

Entitlement
(1) The amount to which a person has a right.
(2) The belief that one is inherently deserving of privileges or special treatment.

Ephesians 2:18-20

If you don’t eliminate your attitude of entitlement, what you are entitled to will be eliminated.

The Here That Matters

Matthew 25:14-30

To not be grateful for what you’ve been given is a sign of wickedness, not poor management.

Hebrews 12:15-28

As you reflect on the message this week, use some of these questions to consider how God might be working within and around you.

Questions for Reflection:

  • Where does contempt show up in your life? Perhaps in your current circumstances? Your relationships? Your gifting?

  • Can you identify a time in your life when you carried your blessings carelessly? What was the result?

  • How do you respond to the statement, “To not use what you’ve been given, to not be grateful for what you have been granted, is a sign of wickedness”?

  • How is your relationship with entitlement related to the perception you hold of yourself and others?

  • Is there a root of bitterness in your life that needs removed?

  • How can you express your thankfulness for what you have been given this week?
