Faith in The Father

Faith in The Father

What kind of Father
do we believe God is?

1. Fear-Based Faith 1 John 4:18

Where have I related to God more as a threat than as a loving Father?

2. Adopted, Not Enslaved Romans 8:15

Do I live like someone trying to earn a place at the table, or like someone who has already been invited to sit there?

Where have I confused God’s grace with permission to stay unchanged?

4. Jesus Shows Us the Balance John 8:10-11

Do I tend to lean more toward condemnation or avoidance when dealing with sin?

5. Joy-Filled Faith

6. The Father Who Runs Luke 15:20

When I imagine coming back to God, do I picture Him angry, indifferent, or joyful?
