Burial, Baptism, and the in Between
Group Discussion Guide
Each Sunday we come together we offer an open invitation into the way of Jesus. An invitation to enter into sacred rhythms - to draw near to God through singing, giving, learning, and praying.
As a community who desires renewal in Des Moines as it is in Heaven, we recognize that we cannot offer what we ourselves do not have. We cannot lead where we ourselves have not been led; in turn, these questions aim at reflection. Reflecting on God’s word and making space for his leadership.
After watching or listening consider the following discussion questions as a large group or in groups of three to four:
What stood out to you about this week’s teaching?
What stood out to you in this week’s teaching?
Have you been baptized? If not, what’s holding you back?
If so, how does Peter’s reflection in 1 Peter 3:14-22 shift your view on baptism and its significance to following Jesus?
What “dynamics of drift” are common for followers of Jesus today? How can we combat that drift?
Prayer for group and congregation needs.
BONUS: Nephilim, Sons of God, Book of Enoch...thoughts, opinions, reflections?
