Title: Building Leaders As Our Culture
Text: Acts 6:1-7

As the church grows in diversity and reach, the call to build leaders becomes a shared culture rather than a selective role. God advances His mission through men and women who are willing to step up with humility, faithfulness, and a heart to serve others. When leadership is embraced across generations and life stages, the church is strengthened, equipped, and positioned to steward the growth God brings.

Title: Discipleship As Our Lifestyle
Text: Matthew 28:18-20

Discipleship is not an occasional activity but the everyday calling of the church. Anchored in Christ’s authority and sustained by His presence, we are invited to live out our faith intentionally in the ordinary spaces of life. Even in weakness, faithful obedience can bear fruit far beyond what we see.

As Hope Church celebrates 35 years of God’s faithfulness, this series calls us to revisit the unchanging values that have shaped our journey. In a changing world, we look again to the Jesus Way—anchoring ourselves in what remains constant as we move forward together into the next season.

The Jesus Way as a theme for our church is about 2 things: being reminded of God’s vision and mission and the fundamentals. These are the things that will keep us on track. The challenge for many people is not to start well but to end well. In these two weeks, we will learn from a negative example and a positive one on how to finish well in God’s kingdom.

Title: Focus 2026
Text: 2 Peter 1:12-15

What is the Lord speaking to our Hope movement as we turn 35 years old this year?

General Questions:

  1. “A small drift today will lead to big deviations in the long run”. Was there a time where you experienced how making small compromises led to undesired or even disastrous outcomes? Share to the LG on what you learned through this incident.

Perspective Questions:

  1. The Church exists to fulfil God’s purpose and Jesus came to reconcile people back to Him. Each of us belong to the church and play a part in enabling this vision to be fulfilled. How can we internalise this in our personal lives and live it out? Are there challenges we face in embracing this vision personally?
  2. There are three approaches we can take when we are exposed to a concept:
      • Level 1: Focus on Others
      • Level 2: Reflect on the Past
      • Level 3: Committed to Growth

    What kind of underlying heart attitudes drive these three different responses? How can we help ourselves to not get stuck at levels 1 and 2?

Application Questions:

  1. These are the godly fundamentals Pastor Jeff spoke about that we need to revisit:obedience, trust, surrender, submission, faith, sacrifice, humility, teachability, love, forgiveness, integrity, followership and holiness. Pick one which you need to be committed to grow in this year and share how you can go about doing so.
  2. Hope Church was started to fulfil God’s vision. As a lifegroup, how can we help one another stay the course and continue to be focused on fulfilling God’s vision together? Brainstorm and agree on a few actionable steps together.
