DIVE IN QUESTIONS

1. What do you see when you look out at your world right now? Your life?

2. Paul gives the worst of these things names, like: \u201chard-pressed,\u201d \u201cperplexed,\u201d \u201cpersecuted,\u201d \u201cstruck down.\u201d How do you experience the current realities of pandemic, restrictions, and sorrow around you? What would you call them? How would you name what you\u2019re/we\u2019re facing right now?

3. What invisible realities are present in our world and in our lives? Can you name just as many here as you did above in question #1? How do they compare?

4. What does it mean to \u201ccarry the death of Jesus\u201d in our bodies and lives? In what ways do we do that?

5. What difference does it make to understand our lives through the death of Jesus? How do the unseen things of this world shape the way we experience what we do see?

6. Does this change the way you\u2019ll be looking at your life this week? How will you carry and see the death and life of Jesus with you?
