G.K. Chesterton (an English journalist) once wrote, “The really great person is the person who makes every person feel great.” Have you ever been someone else's motivator or inspiration? When was the last time you told your kid how special, how capable, or how uniquely gifted they are? Have you ever had someone come alongside you and give you courage to take a bold step that changed your life forever? Encouragement is one of the most powerful forms of word power there is. This Sunday, we’re going to learn how to use this power to change the lives of the many who surround our lives day by day.
DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
1. How do the disciples in Jerusalem respond to news of Paul’s conversion? Why might they have been skeptical? How do you think you would have responded? How might Saul’s ministry have been different had he not had a Barnabas in his corner?
2. Have you ever judged someone based on their past? Why is that so common? Why do you think that it’s so hard for us to let go of who a person used to be? When should we be cautious and why?
3. Do you know someone who seems to know exactly what to say or do to make you feel better? Maybe it’s one of your parents, teachers, or a really good friend. Is there someone who has had your back when others didn’t? What is about them that makes them so effective as an encourager? Have you ever thanked them?
4. Can you identify a positive mentoring relationship in your life? What made it good? Have you had a negative mentoring relationship in your life? What made it bad? Who are the Barnabas’ in your life? I’m not talking about the flatterers or the one who tells you what you want to hear, but the person who always points you in the direction of God’s greatest good.
5. Who needs to hear a good word from you? Who are you going to be a Barnabas to? What specific thing can you do this week to encourage that person?
