Still Small Studies The Prophet Project - Still Small Theatre

Welcome to the Still Small Studies series on The Prophet Project!
Each session will include a video, questions for private reflection, and questions for group discussion.
Some sessions additionally include an exercise (check under the video for a PDF of the instructions!),
and there is also an assignment (instructions under Part 1!) that will carry throughout the study.

Because the prophets touch on so many vital subjects, there is also a short list of suggestions for further reading, in case a topic comes up which you're interested in studying.
If you have questions or technical problems, don't hesitate to contact us at [email protected]!
God bless you in your use of this material!

Part 2 - Control, Curses, and Idolatry

Questions for Reflection/Journaling

Where do I find myself trying to control the people around me, my circumstances, or God?
What idols do I find myself turning to instead of turning to God? Why does that idol have such power in my life?
Lord, how do you want to set me free? Are there steps I need to take or people I need to ask for help, in order to partner with you in this?

Part 3 - Human Value and Human Responsibility

Questions for Reflection/Journaling

How has my own corner of this sinful world shaped and influenced my thinking? Are there attitudes of which I need to repent?
When am I tempted to interpret sacredness in whatever way is convenient for me?
Lord, where am I operating out of shame or obligation instead of freedom and love? What truth do You want to speak to my heart so I can live in the freedom of Jesus?

Lord, You have called each of us both generally (to Jesus) and specifically (to work for which we’re uniquely gifted). Will You tell me more about Your call on my life?
Where or when do I struggle with the difficulty of God’s call? Is there any bitterness of which I need to repent? Bring your questions, doubts, and struggles before the Lord.
How are You calling me to identify with the people around me? How are You asking me to identify with Your heart?

Part 5 - Sovereignty and Trust

How is God’s sovereignty good news for me personally?

Lord, what one way are You asking me to practice the belief that I am beloved by You?
What things about the Church or about my own life cause the most doubt and discouragement for me? Lord, how do You see these situations? What truth do You want to speak to me about this?
Lord, I want more of Your Spirit. How are You already at work in my life? Will You help me to be open to what Your Spirit wants to do, and help me trust that You will empower me for it?
