Memorize/Reflect: “Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.” (Luke 23:34)
Personal Reflection: What was Jesus’ attitude and spirit as he walked toward the cross? How did the various groups of people treat Jesus as He was suffering and going through the trials and torment He faced?
Discussion: What do we learn about the love of God as we read about the cross and the suffering of Jesus? What impact does the resurrection of Jesus have on your daily life and walk of faith?
Prayer Direction: Thank God that Jesus is alive and that His resurrection brings victory over sin, death, and the enemy. Ask God to unleash His resurrection power in your daily life
“Live It!” Challenge: Invite one person to come to a worship service in the Easter season…many people are more open to spiritual things and an invitation to church during this time of the year.
Monthly Prayer Focus: This Easter season we will focus on praying for the power of the risen Jesus to be alive in the lives of people we care about. This week, please pray for the glory and presence of the risen Christ to be experienced by your family members.
Extra Resources for this week: During the Easter season, consider reading the gospels as listed in the reading above and also books such as: He Did This For You by Max Lucado and The Case for Easter by Lee Strobel.
Small Group Resources for this week: The Story Small Groups will take a break during the Easter season. We encourage the groups to plan one service project or have a social gathering during this time off. There will be no small group materials provided for the Easter series except what you find below.

Personal Reflection: Who is a person that has been devoted to you and hung in there with you through the hard times? Who is going through a hard time and how might you be there for this person?
Discussion: How did God guide and lead Ruth through a very hard time of loss and pain? How have you experienced God’s care and presence in the hard and dark times of life?

Memorize/Reflect: “After that whole generation had been gathered to their fathers, another generation grew up, who knew neither the LORD nor what he had done for Israel. 11 Then the Israelites did evil in the eyes of the LORD and served the Baals.” (Judges 2:10-11)
Personal Reflection: In the book of Judges there is a cycle of sin, judgment, crying to God, deliverance, a time of peace, and eventually apathy and sin entered in again. How do you see this pattern in your life? What can you do to break this cycle of sin?
Discussion: Which judge do you find most interesting and what do you learn from this judge’s life?
Prayer Direction: Pray for awareness when patterns of sin and apathy come creeping into your life. Confess where you see a pattern of sin in your life right now.
“Live It!” Challenge: Make a drawing of the pattern of sin that the people of God went through over and over again (this can be found on pages 103 and 104 of The Story or Judges Chapter 2). Do this by drawing a circle to represent the cycle and then write in the various seasons the people went through. Identify where you are in this cycle right now.
Monthly Prayer Focus: The people of God would often stray from God’s ways when a leader transitioned out and a new leader was needed. Pray for Shoreline to do transitions well with all of our leaders including staff, L-Team members, and other volunteers.
