“Who’s Carrying You?”
Fall Circle Groups | Week 2
Leader Note: This season, we are simplifying the format to allow for organic group
discussion. We will keep God’s word central but will allow room for leaders to flex their
facilitating muscles. Let’s get ready for a great conversation!
OPEN IN PRAYER & ICEBREAKER
MESSAGE SUMMARY
It’s been said that were a mighty alone but so much more powerful when we are
together. As the cliché goes teamwork makes the dreamwork. The same is true even in
the middle of your trials, tribulation, and persecutions when you may feel paralyzed. We
never walk alone. During this most vulnerable time is when we need to turn to the best
teammate we could ask for. Because it is in these vulnerable times that the enemy will
try and even send a wolf in sheep’s clothing to try to “carry” you. Watch out! Be careful
who you allow to speak into your ear and into your life. Who we choose to associate
with can make or break us. We must be certain that we have a strong, devoted team
that is going after God just like we are and this week we will see just how we are to do
that.
Key Scripture:
• Mark 2:1-5
• Psalm 148:13-14, 2 Timothy 1:13-14, John 17:14
DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
Point #1: Do the people in your life have the strength to carry your weight? You do not
need a light weight trying to carry you when you are a heavy weight. Strategy is different
based on your weight class. One blow of praise could knock the enemy out.
• Scripture: Read (Psalm 148:13-14). Let them praise the name of the LORD, For
His name alone is exalted; His glory is above the earth and heaven.14 And He has
exalted the [a]horn of His people, The praise of all His saints— Of the children of Israel, A
people near to Him. Praise the LORD!
• There are scriptures that tell us if we are weak to say that we are strong. The word isn’t
telling us to lie. It is allowing us the opportunity to speak life into ourselves. As a man
thinketh so is he.
