Wednesday [BE>DO]:

Think about this week’s questions for group discussion.

1. What are some “blind spots” we tend to have within the church when it comes to areas of compromise? How do we intentionally protect against becoming blind to these areas and falling into them?
2. In our specific culture, how do we go about balancing love and grace with ‘tolerance’ and theological compromise? Why is it dangerous to fervently pursue the latter to the neglect of the former?
3. Why is a merely privatized faith not an option for the genuine believer? How can this in itself lead to spiritual and theological compromise?

 

 

Thursday [DO]:

In a journal, spend some time considering the following:

1. What insights have you had while internalizing this week’s passage?
2. How specifically will you seek to apply its truths in your home/workplace/life in general?
