25 Questions Every Week

Every week, on Monday mornings I meet with three friends to study Genesis.  At the end of each meeting, we rotate accountability partners for the week and leave.  Later that same Monday, we all fill out an accountability question sheet to send to our accountability partner.  We revised the questions this morning, and I think they are golden.  For a couple reasons.  One, we have labored to make the questions get at the root of our sin, not the outward evidences of it.  Two, the questions are probing, so they make us examine ourselves in an honest, hard way.  Three, we are growing closer to Christ, and closer to each other.  Below are the 25 questions for your benefit.  I encourage you to meet with a group of same sex, like minded friends, to do this with each other.  It will be very hard, but it will be so good!
