Book: Exodus, Romans

What’s one small or overlooked thing in your life (a tool, a part, a feature) that makes a big difference when it works — but everything stops when it doesn’t?

S – Scripture

  • Exodus 4:1–5 
  • Romans 12:3–8

O – Observation

  • In Exodus 4, why do you think God focused His conversation with Moses’ calling by asking, “What is that in your hand?”
  • How does the ordinary staff in Moses’ hand become significant in God’s plan?
  • In Romans 12, why does Paul begin the discussion of spiritual gifts with a warning about pride and comparison?
  • How does Paul’s description of the body of Christ help us value both visible and hidden roles?
  • What connection do you see between Moses’ staff and the spiritual gifts Paul describes in Romans 12?

A – Application

  • Which of the S.T.A.F.F. elements (Spiritual gifts, Temperament, Abilities, Focus, Formation) do you clearly see in your life right now?
  • What spiritual gifts have you identified in yourself so far? How did you discover them?
  • How have you seen God use your spiritual gifts to impact others in big or small ways?
  • What’s one way you can “fan into flame” (2 Timothy 1:6) the gift God has given you this week?

P – Prayer

  • Thank God for the unique gifts He has placed in you.
  • Ask Him to open your eyes to see the gifts he has placed in your hands..
  • Pray for the courage and faith to step into situations where your gifts can bless others.
