The Absolute Small Group Bible Study Discussion Questions

small group bible study discussion questions

Looking for the absolute best small group bible study discussion questions? One of the greatest skills that you need to run a good Bible study is the instinct to craft good questions. You know what I mean…

NEVER Ask These Small Group Bible Study Discussion Questions:

1. Never ask a question where the answer is Yes or No. “Is this verse saying that God is good?”
2. Never ask a question that is so blindingly obvious that no one will want to answer it: “Who loved the world so much that he gave his only Son?”
3. Never ask multiple questions: “What has God said he will do for his people in verse 7, why will he do it and what will be the result, and what horse won the 3.30 at Kempton Park Racecourse?”
4. Always ask open questions that get people to think about what the Scriptures are actually saying: “What is the big surprise in v. 15?”
5. Ask not just about facts (what) but also about motivation (why) and connections (how): “Why do you think Jesus asks this question the way he does?”
