Listen "Peace"
Episode Synopsis
Discussion Questions:1) Was there anything from the sermon or the passage that stuck out to you?2) We often pursue peace by avoiding conflict or finding a middle ground where everyone gets something they want. Can you think of a time when this kind of "peace through compromise" turned out to be only temporary?3) God's love is described as uncompromising, meaning he loves us completely without giving up any aspect of his holiness. How does understanding that God's love and God's holiness work together (rather than in tension) change how you approach him?4) Surrendering our desires to God can feel risky because we might get taken advantage of by others. What fears come up for you when you think about putting others' needs above your own rather than negotiating for a fair outcome?5) Jesus won his battle against sin not by overpowering enemies with force but by laying down his own life. In what area of your life might God be calling you to "fight" by surrendering rather than pushing harder?6) Isaiah's vision describes a restored creation where former enemies live in harmony, something only possible through Christ's work. Where in your life do you need to trust that God can bring transformation that seems impossible by human effort?
