19th Sunday after Pentecost

Faith Lutheran Church

Each week, we provide questions based on last Sunday's sermon. These questions are to encourage you to connect the scriptures to your own life and to invite you to grow deeper in your relationships with others at Faith by discussing the questions together. Readings: 2 Samuel 11:2-15 and Matthew 5:21-26 Sermon: When we try to cover up our mistakes we make matters worse, but Christ promises that we can come clean and be better for it. Questions: 1) When have you made matters worse by trying to cover up a mistake? 2) What makes you hesitate to fess up to mistakes that you have made? 3) When have you fessed up to making a mistake? What were the consequences?
