Text: I Corinthians 13:4-7

1. In your opinion, what would the perfect family reunion look like? Who would be there? What would you do?

2. Talk through why it seems that the ones we are the closest to are the ones we love the worst?

3. What would it look like for someone to prioritize love in their family? What aspects of that description do you see displayed in your family? What aspects would you like to improve on?

4. What kind of impact do you think it would have on your life, and in your family, if you were to spend more time Abiding in the presence of God?

Abiding in the Father is what helped Jesus love well. Turn on some background music. Take a few minutes and abide alone with Jesus. Read I Corinthians 13:4-7 and ask God to forgive you for areas of your life where you have failed to love those closest to you and receive God’s forgiveness. Ask God for fresh ideas for next steps and for strength to improve in the areas you have faltered.

Break up into pairs and share with one another what you experienced through your time abiding with Jesus.
