TABLE DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
START HERE
(Table leaders: choose 1–2)
- What stood out to you from tonight?
- What was your gut reaction when you heard the phrase "come and see"?
- Where have you seen someone remembered or "known" in a small detail, and what did that do to you?
- What's something from this passage you'd want to know more about?
GO DEEPER
(Table leaders: choose 1–2 if time allows)
- Why do you think Jesus complimented Nathanael's honesty instead of being put off by his skepticism ("can anything good come from Nazareth")?
- What do you make of Jesus already knowing something about Nathanael before they'd even met?
- Philip didn't argue with Nathanael — he just said "come and see." What do you think that approach does that arguing usually doesn't?
- What's the difference between being convinced of something and actually investigating it for yourself?
- Has there ever been a moment you felt truly known by someone — in a good way or an uncomfortable way?
- What about this passage is easy for you to believe... and what's harder?
- If you were hearing about Jesus for the first time tonight, through this story, what questions would you have?
NEXT STEP
(Table leaders: choose 1 before you end)
- What's one honest question about God or this passage you could actually say out loud tonight, instead of carrying it alone?
- Where in your life might "come and see" be a better next step than needing everything settled first?
- Is there anything from tonight you want to keep thinking about this week?
Optional: "Before you leave, is there anything your table can pray with you about?"
