Questions for Reflection - "Looking for a Break-Through"
Luke 3:1–18
- When someone says, "God loves you" what does that mean?
- When have you experienced "break through's"? What caused them? What resulted?
- Does God love us into "break through" experiences? Why?
- How can you tell when you're having a "break through"? Check v. 10.
- Why is John so tough on these people? (Why do we call them "break through's"?) Check v. 6.
- What does Dietrich Bonhoeffer mean by "cheap grace"?
- If God loves you God is also looking for a break through with you. What have you been learning about God's love?
God loves you.
Prayer of Confession
Our Loving God,
We know you love us. But we also confess that we are unclear about
what love means. We're not sure we really want to know. Forgive us
our preferring our assumptions over what you want to show us. Meet
us in this hour, even in this moment, as we pray in this silence
in Jesus' name.
