Discovery Bible Study:

⬅️ LOOK BACK = share any steps made from last week's discussion about seeking and/or offering forgiveness

⬆️ LOOK UP (before teaching) =

- Pray together

- Read Luke 17:11-19

- What happened? What sticks out? What is the point of the story?

- How do you generally express thankfulness/gratitude?

- When reflecting on your prayers or time with God, what does gratitude look like compared to frustration/pleas/requests/etc?

➡️ LOOK FORWARD (after teaching) =

- Does the community around you (neighbors/co-workers/family) know your opinion about and gratitude toward Jesus?

- When you worship Jesus (whether privately or publicly), what is your posture? Is it calm and composed...or desperate and uninhibited?

- Does your typical response when worshiping resemble your 'worshipful response' to cheering on your kids, hobbies, or favorite sports team?

- If not, why do you think that is?

- Share a moment when your response has been similar to the Samaritan in this passage?

- Make a list, either individually or communally of things to be grateful for, that you have not expressed gratitude to God lately about. Pray over that list together (encourage everyone to simply thank God for some things on that list)

- This week, how can your life tangibly express gratitude for what God has done for you and in you through Jesus?
