Killing what’s Killing You - Comparison and Envy

You’ll never experience the life God intended if you’re trying to live someone else’s life.

  • What’s one idea from the message that stood out to you? Why do you think it grabbed you?

  • What did you get for Christmas? Did you do any comparing when other people opened their gifts?

Read: John 10:10, Proverbs 14:30, Exodus 20:17, Galatians 5:19-21.

  • What does it mean to you to have “life to the full?”

  • What imagery comes to mind when you read the Proverbs passage?

  • How do you view the role the Ten Commandments play in your life?

  • Why do you think envy is included in the list of sins in Galatians?

  • What do you find yourself comparing about yourself most with others?

  • Have you ever felt content? What was/is it like for you life, and what do you think created the feeling of contentment?

  • How can you find contentment in the middle of the bad times in life?

  • Can you help others find contentment? If yes, how? If no, why?

Prayer: Pray that God will help you want the life you have.
