ICEBREAKER: 

If you had a time machine, what period of time would you like to visit and why?

MESSAGE NOTES: 

Eph. 2:10, NLT

For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.

There is unseen God-given potential in every person.

Mark 10:45, ESV

For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve others and to give his life as a ransom for many.

Jesus didn't start with a statement of intent. He started with a statement of identity.

Mark 10:45, ESV

And Jesus said to him, “What do you want me to do for you?”

Ask more QUESTIONS; make fewer STATEMENTS.

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS:

QUESTION 1: How do we practically lead ourselves to see people how God sees them?

QUESTION 2: Have you ever had someone call out unseen potential in you? How did the conversation impact your journey?

QUESTION 3: How would you define “influence”? How can we identify people or places where we have more influence than we realize?

QUESTION 4: What are some practical things we can do to “leverage influence” to help others see the God-given potential within them?
