“It is finished” • John 19:28-30

 Video will Premiere at 10am on Sunday

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 from the teaching?

• Read John 19:28-30. How do Jesus’ words strike you? 

• What are the ways we live as though it is not finished? 

• Ronald Rolheiser - On the cross, faithful to the end, to his God, to his word, to the love he preached, and to his own integrity, he stopped living and began dying, and that’s when he gave off his seed and that’s when his spirit began to permeate the world. In light of this, how might we embrace the same posture of Jesus? 

• What stands in the way of living like it’s finished?
