Hunger & Thirst for Righteousness

 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 that 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?

• Do you agree or disagree with Gustavo Gutiérrez’s claim that “a preferential concern for the poor is essential for the Gospel?”

• How does the connection between justice and righteousness (see Jeremiah 9:23-24) help us think about social justice skillfully?

• What notions of social justice would Christians do well to thoughtfully reimagine? And, how could Christians learn from social justice work disconnected from “the church?”
