Transformed Homework
Week One - Coming Home to Love!
Time Commitment: Approximately 3-4 hours (Just skip a few TV
shows or lay off surfing the web for a few hours!) Complete the
following assignments this week:
1) Pray and read through the Story of the Lost Son & the Loving
Father several times (Luke 15:11-24).
2) Read the My Heart, Christs Home Booklet included in your
binder.
3) Spend some time in prayer asking God to reveal to you ways in
which you need to be changed (Transformed!). Avoid the temptation
to focus on other peoples issues, but rather focus on your own. Sign
and date the Transformed covenants (pg. 12/13) and ask a friend or
family member to witness your commitement to change.
4) Turn to the Transformed Worksheet (the next 4 pages) and write
your thoughts and prayers to God. Be sure to include any relevant
scripture and look for tangible next steps to take in order to move
in the direction of coming home to love.
5) Take some time to complete the Knowing the Love of God
Inventory. Pray about your results and meditate on scripture that
speaks to you about Gods love. (see pages 15/16)
6)Look at the 7 Key Areas of Transformed (Page 2 of your binder)
and ask God to reveal to you areas where you need Transformation.
Remember, be honest, but dont allow yourself to becomed overwelmed or discouraged! Be gentle! Its highly likely that God is far
more patient with you then you are with yourself.
7) Prayerfully consider other ways that God would have you participate with Him in this journey of transformation.
8) If you sense that the Lord might be calling you to share a story of
life-change (testimony) with the family of Grace Fellowship, please
email it to Pastor Jeff at lifestories@gfcshrewsbury.org

Transformed Worksheet
Talk with God about what He wants to change in you! This may
be something that is weighing you down, causing you pain or something

scripture. (John 16:5-15, Hebrews 4:12-13)

Transformed Worksheet
Talk to God about your sin. Remember sin can be something you do
(commission), or dont do (omission). Sin is also attitudes, desires and beliefs
that dont line up with Gods word and will. Write down any relevant scripture. (Luke 5:21, 1 John 1:8-10)

Talk with God about what He wants you to do, and do it! Listen to

what He says to you and any relevant scripture. Ask Him for His power to
LISTEN AND OBEY! Now MOVE YOUR MUSCLES IN LINE WITH

TRANSFORMED COVENANT I
I agree with You God! I am prone to wander
away from You, the source of ALL LOVE!
Im FED-UP with my ways God. Im tired of trying
to live life on my own terms. If Im not fed up with
my ways, I ask You to help me get fed-up, by waking me up.
Im ready to OWN-UP to my sin, and get honest
with You, and at least one other person in my life.
Im willing to OFFER UP my life to You by obeying Your commands and following the promptings
of Your Spirit.. As my life is Tranformed, I will
LIFT-UP You and Your Kingdom, and give all the
honor, glory and credit to You alone! Help me God
to see clearly the areas that You want to change in
my life.
Help me to trust You to guide me each step of the
way, by the power of Your Spirit, the Truth of Your
Word, and the fellowship of Your People. I know
I will not become the person that You intend for
me to be, until I INTEND to become that person.
God, today I proclaim before You that I INTEND
TO BECOME THE PERSON YOU WANT ME
TO BE, By Your Grace & for Your Glory!
