[Sunday] Gentleness & Respect - Spiritual Conversations
Questions for the week
Think of the last time you had a spiritual conversation. How did it go? How did it feel?
Read 1 Peter 3:8-18. What are the Christians whom Peter is writing to facing in life?
How does Peter encourage them to respond? What has Jesus done that enables them to respond that way?
What do you think is important to keep in mind so that you can spark a spiritual conversation while still being gentle and respectful?
Virtually every life transforming event recorded in Scripture includes a journey, a process the people involved go through that leads to insight, transformation and new life for all willing to engage that journey. The journey always includes elements of sacrifice, worship, trust and faith. Christmas is about Jesus making the journey from heaven to earth, for the Magi it was the journey from wisdom to humility. For us, it is a journey to wonder and new life.
