1 Timothy 5:19-21

1. "Freedom equals choices, which equals consequences, which equals love." How is it actually a demonstration of love to allow people to face the consequences for their actions? How does it demonstrate lack of love to rescue people from the consequences of their chosen behavior?

2. In your opinion, do pastors and believers answer to different standards before God? Why or why not?

Apostolic Function

Question #1: What shift have you seen in the American family that has led to this present fatherless generation?

Question #2: Believers often assume that their pastors have it all together and don't suffer the same wounds or go through the same struggles as ordinary Christians. Why is this not true, and how does it harm pastors when their members think like this?

Question #3: Have you had the benefit of an older, more mature Christian taking you under his or her wing? If so, how did it help shape your Christian walk? If not, are you open to this type of relationship? Why or why not?
