Transforming Grace
Community Meditation Questions
Growing in knowledge
- Discuss the difference between sins of commission and sins of omission.
- Read the parable of the Good Samaritan in Luke 10:25-37. What jacked up stuff is done in this story? Categorize these as either commission or omission.
Feeling life deeply
- What areas of your life do you want God’s grace to transform? If you can’t think of anything, write down the words arrogance or naivety.
- Is there anything you know that God has shown you to do and you haven’t done it.? Like the Priest and Levite in Jesus’ parable?
Living with courage
- Share any area of life where you have followed Jesus in the past and how his grace changed your actions. In other words, share how you have chosen to live differently because you are a follower of Christ.
