Excitement

Bible:

1 Kings 9:3; 2 Chronicles 6:19

Discussion Starter:

We have a tendency to have a been there, done that attitude when it comes to God. Sometimes we read the Bible or pray and it isn’t all that exciting. We might even think of interacting with God as boring.

But have you ever stopped to think about how incredibly crazy it is that you can close your eyes and talk to God? The same God who spoke the universe into existence, the same God whose breath filled humanities lungs, the same God who inspired a person to create Cool Ranch Doritos... you can actually talk to Him and He hears you! You can actually open and read a book He inspired for you to read and meditate on.

That’s exciting!

3 Questions:

1. What would be something so exciting that you’d jump up and down right now?
2. Which would be more fun? Having a wish granted or granting the wish of your best friend?
3. What do you think gets God excited?

Chew on this:

Does this discussion change at all if you reverse the roles? Instead of the human being God and you being the dog, what if God were the dog in the video and you were the human? Do you think God gets that excited about you?
