Why does this passage start and end with retelling the story of the Exodus (v10-12, 21-25)? What is God’s point?
Why do they need to be “careful” not to forget the Lord (v12)? How does Jesus help us see the purpose behind God’s Law?
Are there ways you can consider ‘structuring’ your life to show your trust in God and help you ‘remember’ the Gospel?

Scripture: Deuteronomy 1-3

Pastor Eric Sandberg

CGCM English Service

What does God want His people to remember about who He is, who They are? Why?
Are there times when fear caused you to “forget” instead of “remember” who God is?
How does Jesus help us remember “who God is” and how he sees us?
How does that help us be honest with our fears and failures?
How can we remember who “we are” (acknowledge our sin, failure, fear, weakness etc..) without it causing us to get stuck in shame? Or, is that what God wants?!
