Discussion | Confession and Commitment
Jon: You have just listened to the Confession and Commitment story, and this is the discussion episode.
Recap
Cassidy: The Israelites were sorry about what they and their ancestors did. They messed up badly and told God about it all and how sad they were.
Aidan: They also praised God, acknowledging how awesome he is, and they committed themselves to the rules that Moses wrote the book of the law.
Story Episode
Nehemiah 9 – 10
Questions
- Cassidy: What is a regret that you have? If this is a new regret, it’s probably a good time to confess that to God with your friends or family.
- Aidan: Tell each other what you admire about God! Why is God so awesome?
- Cassidy: What commitment do you each need to make? How can you encourage each other within that commitment?
Growth Tip
Aidan: A growth tip is a way for all of us to grow in a relationship with Jesus!
Cassidy: I think there is something we need to mention about the fact that all of Israel was confessing and committing themselves.
Jon: That is a good point. Maybe we can say it this way. We are better together when we confess and commit to God with each other.
Cassidy: Yeah. It’s tough not to mess up. I need others so we can help each other on the journey!
Aidan: So the growth tip is this. Confess your mess and commit to being fit.
Cassidy: Do you mean like spiritually fit!?
Jon: LOL, ok. I like the rhyme. To clarify, confess your sins to each other and commit to an obedient God honouring life.
