Memorize and Reflect

1 Corinthians 6:19-20
Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; 20 you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies.

Prayer Direction

Thank God for HIs amazing gift of life, His unique design and creation of your body, and His unfathomable love for you demonstrated through Jesus. Invite Him to show you any areas in your physical health that need special attention this year. Confess these areas to Him and ask Him for the strength and courage to take the necessary steps to change. Ask Him to show you new opportunities for spiritual growth in this new year.

“Live It!” Challenge

Embracing the Beauty of Creation: This week, set aside at least one hour to spend walking outdoors on one of the 10 different hikes shared in today’s sermon. Spend time listening to God’s Word and singing some praise and worship music as you walk. At different points on the walk, pause and pray, thanking God for the gift of your body, the ability to walk/run, and the gift of His amazing creation, especially in the Monterey area. Bonus: Invite a friend/family member with you on your journey.

Small Group Discussion

2. Read: Genesis 1:27 and Psalm 139: 13-14. What does this tell us about God’s love and care for our bodies?

3. What are ways that the world attempts to confuse us or distract us from God’s design and desire for us to care for our bodies?

4. Read: 1 Corinthians 6:19-20. What does God’s Word say about the importance of our bodies and the sacred responsibility we have for caring for our bodies and stewarding our health?

5. What are ways that we can honor God with our bodies, including exercise, nutrition, and rest?

6. Read: 1 Corinthians 10:23. What are habits or health-related practices that might not be beneficial or constructive to a person’s physical health?

7. Reflecting on this week’s message, what are 2-3 things you would like to do differently this year in relation to your physical health? Be specific and ask your group to pray for you as you take the steps to do so.
