DISCUSSION
Life App: Peace—Proving you care more about each other than winning an argument.
Bible Story: The Peacemaker (Abigail Intervenes) • 1 Samuel 25:1-35
Key Question: What are ways you can be a peacemaker?
Bottom Line: You can show you care about others by being part of the solution.
Basic Truth: I am made for a purpose so the Holy Spirit will help me do big things now.
Memory Verse: So, let us do all we can to live in peace. And let us work hard to build
up one another. Romans 14:19 (NIrV)
Ask the following questions and lead the group to discuss:
- Why do Jesus followers consider Jesus to be the ultimate peacemaker?
- What are some reasons that we avoid being peacemakers in difficult situations?
What are some ways we can be a peacemaker? (If necessary, provide a scenario: If someone is giving you the silent treatment, what could you do to be a peacemaker? What if you are watching a show and your older brother walks in and switches what you’re watching – what could you do to be a peacemaker?)
