We are kicking off our new series: Written in Stone! We are going to be going over the ten commandments listed in Exodus 20. This week, Ryan is starting with the first two commandments. He brings up three points:

1. Relationship with God requires rescue by God
2. Right worship has requirements
3. Rewards come to the righteous

Discussion Questions

1. What is the significance of God reminding the Israelite people that He rescued them from Egyptian slavery? Why might He do that before sharing the 10 Commandments with them?

2. Have you ever had a conversation with someone who claims to love Jesus, but has a much different understanding of Jesus than you? How did you respond?

3. What kind of rewards does God offer to those who love him and obey his commands in Exodus 20:6? In what ways does this motivate you to pursue a deeper relationship with Him?

This week, we got to hear from some of Wyatt Park's couples and their experiences with being single, dating, engaged, married.

We want to share a huge 'thank you' to our couples:

Bryce & Rachel Szczepanik, Jeff & Kristen Parmer, and Ken & Robin Connell

We can't wait to see you next week for our next series!

In this message, Ryan covers what being engaged and married looks like in a Christian context. He covers three primary points.

1. How to know when to propose?
2. What is engagement for?
3. What is marriage for?

Questions to think about:

• In your opinion, how does the Song of Solomon weigh in on engagement?
• How does marriage model Jesus? If you are married, in what ways can you model Jesus in your relationship to your spouse?
• How might you encourage a Christian who desires to be in a relationship but has had trouble finding someone interested?
