Talk about the Tim Keller quote: "You don't really know Jesus is all you need until Jesus is all you have.” Have you ever felt like Jesus is all you had? How did that feel?
What things do you spend most of your time on? Be honest. If Jesus asked you to ‘put those to death’ any/all of those activities how would you respond? Would putting it to death make you feel dead or alive?
John 10:10-18
Talk together about a time Jesus led you in a way that seemed hard, confusing, or challenging, but when it all unfolded, you saw His leadership was perfect and good.
Talk together about something you are currently experiencing where you need to trust Jesus’ good leadership in your life. Remind each other how you know Jesus is a Good Shepherd.
John 10:1-10

Today’s teaching was about doors that give access to life. What doors have you always tried to break through/get in thinking you would find true life on the other side? When you did break through, how much life did you actually find?
Jesus is the door that gives us access to life in our Father. What keeps you from pressing into the Father’s Presence? If Jesus has made access, why would you not go more often?
John 7:40-52; 8:12
Faith Talks
Jesus’ light gives us God’s perspective of life. Talk about a way the light of Jesus changed or healed you.
Talk about a way the light of Jesus offended you at some point in your life. How did you get over the offense?

Faith Talks
Make a list of the stuff people work for in hope that it will satisfy the core need of their life. Of that list, what have you attempted to use to make yourself feel complete?
Like the life of the vine flows into the branches, so the Life of Jesus flows into His followers, making us like Him. Talk and pray together about one of Jesus’ character traits that you would like to see more in your life.
