The Power of Resurrection
Discussion Questions
1. The resurrection is a supernatural event that challenges our natural understanding of the world. It invites us to believe in something beyond what we can logically explain. How does the resurrection challenge your personal worldview and understanding of reality?
2. The New Covenant shows us that our relationship with God is not based on our own merit or good works, but on faith in what Christ has done for us. This can be a difficult concept to grasp, especially in a society that emphasizes earning and achieving. How does the truth of the New Covenant challenge your understanding of what it means to have a relationship with God?
3. God's unconditional love for us, demonstrated through the sacrifice of His Son, is a profound mystery that collides with our natural understanding of love. It can be hard to fathom a love that is not based on our performance or worthiness. How have you experienced God's unconditional love in your own life, and how does it differ from the love you've experienced in human relationships?
4. The resurrection gives us a glimpse of the restored, eternal life God has in store for us. It shows that our individuality is valued and that we are destined to become fully redeemed versions of ourselves in heaven. How does this understanding of eternity impact the way you view your identity and purpose in this earthly life?
5. Surrendering to Jesus as both Savior and King means letting go of our selfish ambitions and allowing Christ to live through us. This can be a daily struggle, as our natural inclination is often to pursue our own desires and plans. What does it practically look like for you to surrender to Jesus as King in your daily life, and how do you discern between your own plans and God's perfect plan for you?
