Home
5 mins
Take a couple minutes to pause and clear your mind and let go of what may be filling your heart and mind. Allow God to remind you that you are at home in Him and His immense love for you. He doesn’t need anything else from you right now – just your stillness.
Watch
To begin this week, watch the short, featured video together. This clip briefly explores biblical themes.
Explore ► Biblical Themes | Bible Project
Head to the page link above, you will find videos on a variety of themes found throughout the Bible.
As a group you can select one or two of the theme videos, watch them and answer the Dig In questions.
Dig In
20 mins
Consider the theme/s you explored via the video:
Question ► How has the theme broadened your understanding of the grand narrative of the Bible?
Question ► How does it deepen your understanding of who Jesus is and the significance of His life, death, and resurrection?
Action
5 mins
This week, as you continue to collectively read a book of the Bible, take time to identify the theme/s that emerge within that book.
Share this with your Huddle the next time you meet.
