Getting Started:
Do you know the current vision statement for Constance? (Don’t look yet, but it is at the bottom of this page.)

Digging In:

1. When you think of the word “blessing”, what do you think of? Is your first thought of receiving a blessing or your ability to be a blessing?
   
   
2. Read Genesis 12:1-3. There are two primary aspects of “blessing” in the message God gives Abram. What are they?
   
   
3. Read Deuteronomy 28:1-14. This passage gives the key to receiving God’s blessings…what is it?
4. What would the blessings in the last passage look like if they were happening today?
   
   
5. The observation could be made that the people of Israel heard about receiving God’s blessings, but did not hear that they were to be a blessing to the world. Are we any different?
   
   
6. If the key to receiving God’s blessings is obedience, what is the key to being able to be a blessing to others?
   
   
7. Luke 10:25-37 is the story of the Good Samaritan. How was he a blessing to the man left for dead?
   
   
8. What did it cost the Samaritan?
   
   
9. What was going on in the Samaritan’s life that empowered him to be a blessing to the man?
   
   
10. What kinds of things can move us from always wanting a blessing to always wanting to be a blessing?
    
    
11. What are some tangible things we can do this week to be a blessing to our family? Our coworkers? Our neighbors?

Our vision is to be a community compelled by Christ’s love to bless our world.
