Listen "Colossians: Violence, Progress and Peace - Part Nine, Series Discussion"
Episode Synopsis
11.21 [Mezzanine Panel Discussion] Colossians: Violence Progress and Peace - With our seven part sermon series in Colossians complete, we take a step back and spend some time reflecting on what's been said. Stephen Cheung, Eric Helvie, Raf Landeiro, Chase Chumchal and Jesse Thorson all reflect on the series. *Feel free to refer to the questions below as they correspond to each of the three parts of the group discussion.
Part One:
Question 1: In your own life, what might it look like to embrace capital “P” peace as opposed to inner peace or “Serenity Now?”
Question 2 : In what very real ways have you seen the peace of the Gospel place a question mark over “American Peace” or “Pax Americana?”
Question 3: Why is war very rarely part of the conversation, even during conversations specifically about the problem of violence?
Part Two:
Question 1: If God’s providence isn’t about Him making things happen to you, but rather, is about Him sustaining and moving all things towards his goals, how does that make you feel?
Question 2: In your experience where have you seen someone embrace/choose peace instead of violence?
Part Three:
Question 1: In what ways have you experienced people pushing for agreement inside and outside of the church?
Question 2: What do you think it looks like to put your own ideas and identity aside in order to love the person in front of you?
