Not A Ted Talk: 1 corinthians 2:1-5
May 24th 2026

Ice Breakers: If you had to give a TED Talk right now with zero preparation, what random topic could you talk about for 20 minutes?

  1. Paul says he decided to “know nothing…except Jesus Christ and him crucified” (1 Cor. 2:2). In your family, work, or school life, what good-but-secondary things can subtly become more central than Christ?

  2. Where are you most tempted to trust “impressiveness”—your personality, competence, intelligence, image, influence, or performance—instead of the power of God?

  3. Paul came “in weakness and in fear and much trembling” (1 Cor. 2:3). Where do you currently feel weak, tired, or inadequate? How might that weakness become a place of deeper dependence on Christ? See also 2 Corinthians 12:9–10.

  4. Think about conversations with children, friends, coworkers, classmates, or neighbors. What keeps you from speaking simply and honestly about Jesus? What would faithfulness look like this week?

  5. “What you win people with is what you win people to.” How might that apply to parenting, discipling, leading, teaching, or inviting someone to church?

  6. Paul wanted their faith to rest “not in the wisdom of men but in the power of God” (1 Cor. 2:5). What has your faith been resting on lately—circumstances, gifted leaders, feelings, arguments, routines, your own strength?

  7. Read Romans 1:16 and 2 Timothy 1:7–8. How do these passages encourage us to be humble but not ashamed, weak but not silent, dependent but still bold?
