REFLECT:
- What has been your experience seeing the Bible as primarily about God and His work, not about us?
- Why is it so important for Christian community to remind each other of the gospel’s impact on various aspects of our everyday lives? Why is this so hard?
- Do you slip into the traps of “just being nice,” or speaking “gospel-ish”? How can you practice speaking a clear gospel that truly sounds like good news to other people’s struggles and needs?
