1. What do we learn about God’s relationship to the outcast in 2 Samuel 14?

2. How are we like Absalom in relation to God as our Father?

 

3. Are there times when you think you are “too far gone” for Jesus to restore you to the Father? Why?

 

4. In what ways are you living like an outcast rather than a child of God the Father?

 

5. Christ is our good, big brother who mediates for us and reconciles us back into the Father’s family. If you believed that, how would the way you’re living change this week? (Consider reading Hebrews 2:9-18)

 

Pray for one another to depend on Jesus our older brother by faith this week.
