Grazing on Grace  

Matthew 25:31-46 

Main Point: King Jesus is coming back in all His glory to establish His kingdom and to grant eternal life to the sheep and eternal punishment to the goats.

1. Jesus is coming back

2. Jesus is king, messiah and shepherd 

3. Eternal destination

4. Grace given, grace extended

Small Group Questions:

1. What is something that stood out to you from the passage or sermon?

2. How are you living with the tension of not knowing when Jesus will return?

3. Do you think of Jesus most as King, Messiah or Shepherd?  Why?

Are you motivated to change your actions toward ‘the least of these’ based on this passage?

Contact Micah at micahb@cvbc.net for more information.

· TRIADS: As Christians we have been commanded to love,  encourage, admonish, weep with, and confess sins to one another. At times, this can only be done within the confines of safe and trusted friendships. Triads exist as a means for a group of three  men to meet and communicate regularly for the purpose of building these Christ-centered friendships.

· Retreat: Annually (Spring)                                                                 

CVBC Men are given the opportunity to spend 2 days together at a local camp for the purpose of encouraging one another’s faith through teachings, small groups, and prayer.
