Genesis 18:16-19:38

  • Abraham acting out of fear again - when will the dude learn?  
  • Yet God works in spite of Abraham's actions and fears
  • Names - what is important about your name?  
  • Notice how God promises and acts out care for Ishmael - making of him a great nation as well
  • When we come to this story, read Abraham and Isaac from the perspective of Isaac.  What does that change in you?

Matthew 7:15-29

  • What fruits do you see in yourself?  Others?
  • 21-23 - Sounds like Matthew 25 doesn't it?
  • Parable - how am I living out these teachings?  You?
  • What was Jesus' authority? 

The Bible Project has a bunch of videos abou tthe Sermon on the Mount.  There's an introduction and then several that go into specific parts.  Best thing would be just to link to their youtube playlist of them.
