Religion & Spirituality
1. Does it make sense in God’s self-revelation that he would speak of both grace and judgment? Are you comfortable or uncomfortable with that? 2. Do you struggle with thinking grace or mercy is a right or entitlement? Do you struggle thinking you have to earn grace or mercy? 3. Why is it uncomfortable for us that God’s grace is free and entirely up to him? Does it have to be that way? 4. Does it seem odd that we would need a mediator with God? Why is Jesus the truer and better mediator than Moses or Abraham or anyone else? What benefits does he bring that no one else does? 5. How is God’s grace integral to his mission? Are you unimpressed with God’s grace toward you? 6. What are ways you and our church could more deeply express our own grace-marked identity?
