	GP Plainfield - 03.30.25 - Good and Angry, Week 5	31 Mar 2025	00:44:21
This sermon is given by GPP's Campus Pastor Jared Seeland. The scripture reference is John 11:1-6, 17-21, 28-39. # Key Verses John 11:35 Ephesians 4:26 John 10:10 Hebrews 2:14 Revelation 1:18 Questions How do you typically handle your anger with God? Do you tend to avoid Him or bring your raw emotions to Him? What's the difference between destructive anger and redemptive anger? Why did Jesus wait two days before going to Lazarus? What does this teach us about God's timing? How does understanding that Satan, not God, holds the power of death change your perspective on tragedy? What are some things in our world that should make Christians angry? How can we ensure our anger leads to redemptive action rather than destruction? What's the significance of Jesus weeping with Mary and Martha instead of immediately correcting their lack of faith? How can we as a church better channel our collective anger into meaningful ministry? Life Application This week, identify something that makes you righteously angry - an injustice or form of brokenness in the world. Take that anger to God in prayer, asking Him to sanctify it and show you how to channel it into redemptive action. Then, take one concrete step toward addressing that issue in a way that brings restoration. Key Takeaways God invites us to work through our anger with Him, and He will redeem it for good Jesus' anger was directed at brokenness and death, not at people Redemptive anger leads to restorative action, not destruction We should be angry at what angers God, not what angers the world ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------Welcome to Grace Pointe!

Key Verses Mark 13:16 2 Peter 3:9 1 Timothy 2:4 1 Corinthians 3:6-7 Questions Why do you think Jesus became angry with his disciples in this passage? What are some ways we might unintentionally become barriers to others seeking Jesus? Why do you think only 2% of Christians invite others to church? What fears or hesitations do you have about inviting others to church? How can we become more intentional about being bridges rather than barriers? What's the difference between being a 'gatekeeper' and a 'bridge builder' in the church? How does the concept of childlike faith relate to sharing our faith with others? What practical steps can you take this week to be more welcoming to others? Life Application Take one invitation card this week and commit to praying about who God wants you to invite to Easter service. Look for natural opportunities to extend that invitation and step out in 'reckless obedience' to be a bridge rather than a barrier. Key Takeaways Jesus gets angry when his followers become barriers instead of bridges Most non-Christians (82%) would attend church if invited by a trusted friend We don't need perfect knowledge to share our faith - just obedience The resurrection should catalyze us to invite others to Jesus Each person can reach one other person for Christ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Welcome to Grace Pointe!

The scripture reference is Matthew 18:21-35, 21:18-19. # Key Verses Matthew 18:21-35 Matthew 21:18-19 Questions What does the contrast between the two debts in the parable teach us about God's forgiveness versus our own? How do we sometimes 'compartmentalize' our faith like the unforgiving servant did? What is your 'behavioral default' when someone wrongs you? How does this align with Jesus' teaching ?Why do you think the king was angrier about the servant's lack of mercy than his original debt? How can we avoid taking God's forgiveness for granted in our daily lives? What's the difference between knowing about Jesus versus actually imitating Him? How does forgiveness cost us something? Why is this significant? What practical steps can we take to become more forgiving people? Life Application This week, conduct a 'forgiveness audit' - prayerfully identify anyone you're holding grudges against or struggling to forgive. Take concrete steps toward forgiveness and, where appropriate, pursue reconciliation with that person. Key Takeaways Jesus' anger flares when we fail to imitate His character Knowledge about God without transformation doesn't please Him Our forgiveness of others should reflect the enormous forgiveness we've received True Christianity pulls us away from our behavioral defaults toward Christ-likeness Forgiveness is costly but reveals the gospel to others ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Welcome to Grace Pointe!

This sermon is given by GPP's Campus Pastor Jared Seeland. The scripture reference is Mark 3:1-6 Key Verses Mark 3:1-6 Luke 5:36 Isaiah 43:19 Questions What are some signs that we might be settling for a 'good enough' Christianity? How do you think the man with the withered hand felt when the religious leaders remained silent about his healing? In what ways might our church be acting like an 'old wineskin' resistant to new things God wants to do? What areas of your life are you most protective of when it comes to surrendering to God? How can righteous anger serve as a catalyst for positive change in our lives? What's the difference between being religious and being a radical follower of Jesus? How might comfort and status quo be hindering your spiritual growth? What's one step you could take this week toward more complete surrender to Jesus? Life Application This week, identify one area of your life where you've been holding too tightly to control. Write down specific ways you can begin surrendering that area to Jesus, and take at least one concrete step toward letting go of that control. Key Takeaways Jesus becomes angry when we settle for a lesser kingdom instead of embracing His better way Being aware of our brokenness makes us more receptive to Jesus's healing and transformation Comfortable Christianity can make us resistant to the new things God wants to do True discipleship requires complete surrender, not just partial obedience ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------Welcome to Grace Pointe!

For each instance, write down what caused the anger, how you responded, and what the result was. Reflect on whether your anger was righteous and if your response was constructive or destructive. Share your insights with your small group .Key Takeaways Our relationship with anger should be about direction, not suppression Righteous anger should be filtered through Scripture and submitted to God's authority Jesus' anger was constructive, not destructive, and led to restoration True righteous anger should lead to positive change and draw people to God We must be slow to anger and careful in our response ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------Welcome to Grace Pointe!

How can we identify areas in our lives where we need to surrender more to God? What are some burdens you feel God is asking you to bear for His kingdom? How can we ensure that we are not creating a version of Jesus that fits our desires? What are some practical ways to put off the old self and put on the new self? How does trusting in God's promises bring peace to our lives? What is a 'kingdom resolution' you can make for the new year? How can we support each other in our journeys of surrender and trust in God? Apply it: This week, identify one area of your life where you can surrender more to God. Take a step of faith in that area and trust God to bring peace and transformation. Key takeaways: The deeper the surrender to God, the greater the peace we experience. Surrender involves denying our self-interest and trusting God's plan. True peace is rooted in a relationship with God and is unaffected by circumstances. Living a life of purpose involves bearing the burdens God places on us for His kingdom. Trusting in God's promises is essential for experiencing peace in every situation.

Explore how to resist modern temptations and find ultimate satisfaction in God's provision. 1. Matthew 4:1-11 2. Deuteronomy 8:3 3. 1 Corinthians 10:13 4. Hebrews 4:15-16 Thoughts to think through: 1. What stood out to you the most from the sermon? 2. How do you define hope in your own words? 3. Can you share a time when you resisted a temptation by focusing on a greater hope? 4. What are some practical ways you can develop spiritual disciplines like fasting or scripture study? 5. How does understanding Jesus' temptations help you in your own spiritual journey? 6. What are some 'immediate gratifications' that you find challenging to resist? 7.
