Pursuit Groups, Week 3

Discerning Calling

Facilitator Guide

Weeks:
1. The Pursuit2. The Task3. Calling4. Barriers5. Stories

Facilitator goal:

Read the following as a group:

  • Matthew 28:18-20
  • Mark 16:15-18
  • Luke 24:45-49
  • John 20:21-23
  • Acts 1:8

If this is God’s call for the Church, the question is not “Am I called?” Rather, the question is “Where do I fit in God’s call?”

Help participants process God’s mission as a universal calling for the Church.

Questions

  1. How is God leading you to engage in His global mission now or in the future?
  2. On a scale of 1-5, how confident do you feel about your sense of leading into God’s global purposes? Why?
  3. How can you involve your church in helping you answer questions?
  4. What are various ways that someone with your skills can serve God’s global purpose?
  5. Can you do what you do now (professionally, vocationally) among the unreached? Do you have a group or place in mind, and if so, what would benefit them?
  6. Would your church support you in becoming missionary?

Additional questions for facilitator to ask:

  1. Do you agree that all Christians are called to missions? Why or why not?

If discerning calling is hard for them, ask:

  1. Do you have any fears that might be making it harder to discern calling?
  2. Is there someone who knows you well who could process these questions with you?
