Week 7 Discussion Guide

Rooted in Real Transformation

"Remain in Me."
John 15:4

Weekly focus

Week 7 focuses on abiding, spiritual roots, fruitfulness, obedience, worship, Scripture, prayer, love, and community. Participants reflect on how God has changed them over the course of the journey.

Leader framing

Real transformation is not surface-level change. It is rooted change. Jesus calls us to remain in Him because lasting fruit grows from deep connection. This week helps participants look for evidence of growth and identify where deeper roots are still needed.
