We are meeting at the Point Loma Campus.

1st Floor, Room 144 (behind the community room)

After you enter the lobby, walk past the elevators and the community room, go through the double doors on your right, and walk all the way down the walkway almost to the end. Room 144 will be on your right.

Devotional (6:00pm-7:00pm) and line dancing (7:00pm-8:00pm).

During our devotional time, we will discuss The Chosen (study below). During our line dancing time, we will learn easy beginner level line dances.

The Big Idea:
What is your one BIG idea from this episode? (What captured your imagination most, and what would you first share with someone about this episode and how God spoke to you through it?)

Bring to Group:
What quote from this episode was the most meaningful/impactful to you? Why?

Group Discussion Questions:
1. Which characters stood out to you most? Which were most interesting? Most moving?

2. The episode begins and ends with Nathanael. He thought his life was lost, only to discover something beautiful after meeting Jesus. He told the bartender that he had died of “hubris.” What did he mean and why is that significant to the story?

3. Phillip played several roles in the episode, but he played a key role in bringing Nathanael to Jesus. Nathanael said, “I’ve never seen you talk like this.” What will it take for you to talk so compellingly about Jesus to someone?

4. What can you conclude by Jesus’ being aware of Nathanael’s lowest moment?

5. What joke did Phillip tell Matthew to help him loosen up? What did you think about the way he related with Matthew?

6. Matthew said he felt “outside the circle.” What did he mean, and can you identify?

7. We see another instance of the life of Jesus being written down in Matthew’s journal. Why is that meaningful?

8. Peter advocated for more structure. What was he really wanting?

9. Jesus said, “Each brings something unique to the whole. I want every voice heard. We can all learn something from each other. “ It seems to echo Paul’s teaching about spiritual gifts. Why do need each other?

10. What other observations did you have?

Quotes:
“I don’t know what he sees in me.” -Matthew

“I was something else once too. They want to define us by our past, our sins.” -Phillip
