 WEEKLY REFLECTIONS

 1.   When you hear the word “repentance”, what comes to mind?  What does it mean?  What does it look like?

 2.   1 John 2:16 describes sin in three ways: the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life.  What are some examples of these things and how they might show up in our lives today?  (Add’l resources: Matt 4:1-11, Luke 4:1-13)

 3.   What is the difference between a change of position and a change in direction?  How do these things work together in the Christian faith?

 4.   What is the difference between our changed behavior flowing out of God’s grace as opposed to leading to God’s grace?  Who does this imply is in control?

 5.   How do we benefit from the fruit of repentance in our lives?  What are the tangible positives?
