LEARN THE WORD

• As you read through Deuteronomy (in a few months) – what do you see and learn that you didn’t know before?  How does that change you?
• What do you discover new about God as you read through Deuteronomy? Why does the Lord give them the 10 commandments and other regulations yet again?
• Does it seem fair that Moses wasn’t allowed to go into the Promise Land? What does it teach us about the seriousness of sin and pride?  What does it teach us about God’s sovereign plan for the people and also for us?

LOVE THE WORD

• How do you see God’s great love throughout the book of Deuteronomy in particular the reminders of God’s great love for His people and His desire for them to love and obey Him? Name some of those specific ways and how does it make you love God more? 

LIVE THE WORD

• Be willing to share what you learn with others that you come in contact with – don’t just get the Word in you, but also get it out of you!!
