How it works
Good small group questions follow a simple path: open the conversation, read the passage, observe what it says, understand what the sermon drew from it, apply it to this week, and pray. The generator puts your sermon's own words into that structure, so every question points back to what was actually preached rather than generic Bible study prompts.
Tips for better questions
- Write the big idea as one full sentence. It becomes the spine of the discussion.
- Use the preacher's wording for main points. Group members will recognize them from Sunday.
- Make the "ask" specific. "Pray for one neighbor by name each morning" makes a better application question than "pray more."
- Cut freely. Two great questions beat eight rushed ones.
- Avoid yes/no questions when you edit. Start with what, how, where or why.

FAQ
Is this generator really free?
Yes. It runs entirely in your browser, needs no sign-up, and nothing you type is sent to us or stored.
Does it use AI?
No. It combines what you enter with proven question patterns (observe, understand, apply, pray). That keeps every question tied to what was actually preached. Edit the results freely.
How many questions should a small group use?
For a 60-minute group, plan on one icebreaker and six to eight discussion questions. Leaders rarely get through more, and the best conversations often come from just two or three.
Can I generate questions from a full transcript?
This tool works from the passage, big idea and main points. Amenflow can build a complete small group guide from the full recording or transcript.
