Week 7 â Rotten Roots
Challenge: Howâs your âfoundationâ? Are there any sandy spots?
Words To Hide In Your Heart This Week:
âHe was pierced by our transgressions and bruised for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was laid on him and by his stripes we are healed
-Isaiah 53:5
And everyone who hears these words of mine and does not do them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell, and great was the fall.

Discussion Questions âThe Chosen Lesson 7â
What did you HIGHLIGHT in your bible since last time? Why?
Faith and reasons are not opposites. However faith, not reason, invites us to move beyond our own finite levels of comprehension and control. Can you describe a time when your faith invited you to move beyond your own capacity to reason? (AKA â God moved you to do something and you didnât know how or why, but it turned out greater than you could imagine.)
Isaiah 13, 43, and 47 show God using âwicked peopleâ like Babylonians and Chaldeans to punish other wicked people (like disobedient Israelites). What do you think about that?
In what ways have you built your house on sand? Note even after weâve decided to follow Jesus, weâre still capable of âsand dwellingâ. (Matthew 7)
In Episode 7, Nicodemus quotes Psalms 2:12 and Jesus finishes the Psalm. What does it mean to take refuge in Jesus? How is that related to His teaching of building your life on a rock?
Simon was skeptical about Matthew becoming a Jesus-follower. Have you ever been like Simon thinking its your right/responsibility to judge other followers of Jesus?
Read Colossians 2:6-7 Explain the difference between being knowing about Jesus and being an established believer.

Discussion Questions âThe Chosen Lesson 6â
What did you HIGHLIGHT in your bible since last time? Why?
Like the Leper in episode 6, those who come to Jesus experience change. What changes has He made in your life? What changes are you still hoping to come?
Read Psalms 103:10-12. For many, a new start is hard to imagine. What does this psalm tell us about Godâs ability to forgive and begin again?
Which characterâs transformation in the Chosen thus far do you relate with most? Why?
Read 2 Corinthians 5:17-21. What are some differences between pre-Jesus living and post-Jesus living regardless of our ongoing battle with Sin?
In Episode 6, Matthew says âConquest is not simply conquering nations, but imposing a new way of lifeâ. In what ways does this describe the people Jesus saves?
Read Isaiah 43:18-19 and Gal 3:25-29. How are these passages related?

What did you HIGHLIGHT in your bible since last time? Why?
What area of your life do you find is most difficult to relinquish control of? (Relationships, job, current events, pain/illness etc?) What does James 4:13-15 recommend instead?
Read Isaiah Chp. 8:11-13. In Isaiah Chp. 1-12, the prophet is speaking mostly to the current king, Ahaz, in the face of impending political and military invasion. God calls His people to repent and return. Instead of listening and desiring to maintain his sense of control, King Ahaz continues worshipping his idols and schemes with Assyria to take on Syria and Israel. The Assyrians did defeat the invasion but then took the land of Judah captive â costing the nation itâs freedom. Can you think of a time when you made things way worse by trying to make them better yourself instead of repenting from your sin?
Read Isaiah 43:5. Re-read Isaiah 8:12-13. Who does God tell us to fear? Is this a contradiction? Why/why not?
Read Deut 10:20-11:7. In your words, what is Mosesâ given reason that Israel would do well to serve God in reverence and fear?
In the Chosen - Simon (Peter), Mary, and even Nicodemus are experiencing a âCome to Jesusâ story. Do you have a âcome to Jesus storyâ youâre willing to share?
I was ____________________ , But God ___________________ , And Now ____________________.
Read Luke 5:1-11. The moment Simon realized he was unworthy to be in Jesusâ presence is the same moment he decided to follow him. Explain the correlation.
Read Matthew 7:21-23. Explain in your own words why the salvation offered by Jesus is free, but following Him costs us everything. Is there any area of your life you need to leave behind to follow him more fully?

Discussion Questions âThe Chosen Lesson 2â
What did you HIGHLIGHT in your bible since last time? Why?
Read Exodus 20:8-11. What is the origin of the Sabbath-day rest?
What promise does God make to his chosen people in Isaiah 43:2? How does this relate to Exodus 14:26-31, Joshua 3:14-17, and Daniel 3:1-28?
After their liberation from bondage in Egypt the Israelites found themselves in the wilderness. The One who made the wilderness was the One leading them THROUGH it. How does it change the way you look at impossible things to ponder God as the Creator?
Do you practice the discipline of the Sabbath now? How?
Read Psalm 46:10. How would meditating on God have impacted Maryâs healing process? Nicodemusâs priorities? Matthewâs striving? Simonâs impatience or confusion?
Have you struggled with feeling empty or exhausted lately? Keeping the Sabbath is most obviously marked by ânot workingâ. But Godâs primary intention behind the commandment is to spend the day like Mary did â to enter into His presence. What needs to change in your schedule or in your mindset to rest the way God intended?
Read Matthew 11:28-30, Psalms 56:8, Matthew 10:30, Luke 12:7, Romans 5:8, Revelation 21:4. Which of these verses bring you the greatest feeling of rest, peace, and hope? Why?
