Discussion Questions

  •  What kind of nourishment do you need?  What are you hungering for?
  •  Are there people in your life, that you have ‘’turned over to the Lord Jesus,” that Jesus might be calling on you ‘to feed’ ?
  •  Does your lack of, stop you from offering what you do have? How can one bring an offering to the Lord, in a plea to have him bless and multiply it?
