Unit 2: Living Water
May 4 – Healing Water
Focal Passage: John 5:1-15
Background Text: John 5:1-18
Purpose Statement: To affirm that Jesus is the healer who makes us well
How do you imagine the man felt when he could walk again after 38 years? How do you think this might have changed his perspective on the healing waters of the pool of Bethsaida?
Have you encountered Jesus’ healing presence or power in a way you could not explain? Have you ever experienced healing and wholeness and only later realized that it came from Jesus?
May 11 – Master of the Waters
Focal Passage: John 6:16-25
Background Text: Same
Purpose Statement: To rejoice in the knowledge that Jesus is in charge
What does the miracle of Jesus walking on the water tell you about God? What does it tell you about the world? What does it tell you about the relationship between God and the world?
Where do you see the presence of Jesus in creation? What difference does it make for our world that Jesus is on charge?
May 18 – Rivers of Living Water
Focal Passage: John 7:37-46
Background Text: John 7
Purpose Statement: To celebrate Jesus’ gift of living water that brings eternal life
Where does your water come from? Do you trust Jesus to send you his Spirit as much as you trust the water to flow when you turn on the tap?
When were you in a wilderness where Jesus’ Spirit poured forth like water? Where have you been surprised by Jesus’ Spirit?
May 25 – Cleansing Water
Focal Passage: John 13:1-11

Purpose Statement: To respond with humble obedience to Jesus’ directive to wash feet
Have you ever washed someone’s feet or had your feet washed? How do you think you would react if Jesus were to wash your feet?
What does radical hospitality mean to you? How can you see yourself and your church dismantling the wall between host and guest in mission and ministry?
