Sermon Notes & Discussion Questions

21 June 2026

We celebrated Father’s Day on Sunday.
1️⃣ What are you most thankful for about the fathers and father figures who have influenced your life?

Ps Sean Phillipps shared a message titled, “I Have Never Been This Way Before.” He reminded us that while the unknown can feel intimidating, following God’s presence is always the best way forward.
2️⃣ What stood out to you from Sunday’s message?

We need to approach an unknown future in three ways:
• Shift your focus
• Reposition yourself
• Follow His presence
3️⃣ Are you currently facing the unknown? Which of these three areas do you need to apply?

Our lives naturally move in the direction of what we focus on. Philippians 4:8 reminds us to think about whatever is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, admirable, excellent, and praiseworthy.
4️⃣ What do you spend most of your time thinking about, and how is that shaping the direction of your life?

In Exodus 33:15, Moses said, “If Your Presence does not go with us, do not send us up from here.”
5️⃣ How can we make sure we are following God’s leading and not simply pursuing our own plans and dreams?

In Joshua 24:15, Joshua declared, “As for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.”
6️⃣ What are some practical ways you can serve the Lord and put Him first this coming week?
