Build Up One Another

10/3/2021

 
ICEBREAKER
Would you rather live in a house that’s half-built or a house that’s falling apart?

Today we’re talking about “Building Up One Another.” The reality is that the things we say to one another can easily tear each other down. But the truth is we all need to be built up and our words can build others up.

FROM THE TENSION
​
What are some common ways we tear each other down (with examples of specific words and phrases)… in our marriages, in our families, in our workplaces or schools, in our community, on social media?

​Can you recall and share an example of a time when someone really built you up?

FROM THE TRUTH
Read or review Ephesians 4:29. What do “unwholesome” (NIV) and “building others up” mean?
​
One of the most important things we need as Christians is to build our lives on our Identity in Christ. Review the My Identity handout. What are some of the more significant identity markers that stand out to you? 

FROM THE TAKEAWAY
What kinds of words and phrases can you use to be more of a builder in your…
  • Marriage
  • Family
  • Friendships
  • Work place
  • School
  • Social Media

FINAL QUESTION
How does living this “one another” make us irresistible people?

PRAYER
First, take some time to ask people to identify prayer needs related to the discussion about encouraging one another. Second, take some time to ask for additional prayer requests. Then close your time together in prayer.
