Sharing some highlights from our recommended book study this fall:
Lazarus Awakening by Joanna Weaver....
Did you read this Bonus Chapter?
(With Joanna's Permission of course) Here are her Questions for discussion or reflection:
Which of the grave clothes responses identified in the “Tripping Points”
sidebar on page 184 do you default to most often? What new response
would you like to give next time your buttons are pushed?
Going Deeper
Read Hebrews 12:2–3. (You may also want to
read The Message version of this passage found at the end of the bonus
chapter.) Describe what Jesus endured in order to be obedient to God. Now
read Hebrews 12:4. What does this last verse say to your heart?
Read James 5:16. How has confessing your faults to another person helped
unwind your grave clothes?
Early Methodists used to meet meet weekly and ask each other the following questions:
- Have you experienced any particular temptations during the past week?
- How did you react or respond to those temptations?
- Is there anything you are trying to keep secret, and, if so, what?
How would answering these questions help you shed grave clothes? Are
there other questions you would add? Who would you allow to ask these
hard questions of you?
What spoke to your heart the most from this Bonus Chapter?
