DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
- Describe when you first seriously asked the question, “Who is Jesus?” What were the circumstances of your life at that time?
- Is it difficult or easy for you to believe that Jesus rose from the dead and is alive today? Could you articulate your belief to a friend in a clear way?
- If it is difficult for you to believe Jesus was resurrected, what is the biggest hurdle to that belief?
- To which response of who Jesus is (Liar, Lord, Lunatic, or Legend) do your friends or colleagues or neighbors tend to gravitate?
- If Jesus is who He says He is, how will that affect your life on Monday?
NEXT STEP
