WORK, Ephesians 4:28 March 3, 2019 CONNECT 1. How does stealing serve as an obstacle that disrupts community? 2. What is meant by “doing honest work with his own hands”? Why? 3. How does God’s example of work (Genesis 1–2) instruct us on stewardship and true, honest work?

CELEBRATE 4. What has been a misconception about work that has endured in the 21st century? How about in our lives as believers? 5. How does Ephesians 4:28 relate to the context and theme of this series? 6. How does honesty provide security? How does honesty glorify God even if it isn’t noticed?

CONTRIBUTE 7. How can we do the hard work of ministry (not professional ministry, but serving in God’s kingdom) when we have little margin? 8. How can we reach a world that continually justifies stealing because “everyone else does it”?
