10 Simple Discipleship Questions
I’ve been meeting with a few guys recently and so wanted to come up with one good question we could discuss each week. I feel like we’ve had some amazing discussions thus far, discussing God and sharing our lives. I love that one question gives us freedom to talk about life. It feels natural and not like we’re trying to “check questions off a list.” Note: I do want to be honest that I just came up with these questions and I’m only a few weeks into using them. But, I thought I’d share my process in case it’ll be helpful to someone else.
