As You Prepare for the Weekend:

Read Matthew 5:13-16

Ask Yourself:
- As a Christ-follower, are there areas where my identity has faded or blended too much into the world?
- Who are the people in my life who see Christ more clearly because of my words and actions?
- Is fear, comfort, sin, or distraction a “basket” or “bowl” covering my light?
- Do my good works point people to me—or to God?

As You Prepare for the Weekend:

·      Read 2 Corinthians 5:11-21

Ask Yourself:

·      What do you think Paul means in verse 11 by “fear the Lord”?  

·      How do you think the Love of Jesus changed the way(s) Paul (and others) saw people in their lives?  (look at verses 14-15 again)

·      What do you think it takes for a follower of Jesus to become an Ambassador of Jesus?  

·      How would your friends finish this sentence about you:  “He/She is an ambassador of __________”  (what do you best represent by your life?)
