Pandemic Discussion, Part III

This week, Steve will be teaching part three in this series. In talking about suffering and evil, keep in mind that Jesus does answer this and ultimately resolves it by way of the cross and His sacrifice. Remember communion is always appropriate in the context of a group and especially so when talking about eradicating evil and suffering. So we'd encourage you to consider communion in your next meeting as we dive into this topic.

Listed below are the general questions that you can use this week in your discussion. If you'd like to refresh your memory on Steve's thoughts and how-to's for celebrating communion together as a group, then please refer to the blog post on Thursday, May 29th.

Based on the content of the teaching/message:

What were the key points for you?
What was the "one thing" you took away?
What surprised you?
What bothered you? Why?
Have you ever heard or come across a similar teaching or idea? Have you ever been taught something that was contradictory?
What is/was already part of your thinking on this subject?
What did I learn that was new to you?
*About God?
*About yourself?
*About others?
What changes of thought are necessary in light of what you learned?
What changes of action are needed?
How would life be different if you/we applied this teaching fully?
What are the hindrances, and what do we do about those?
