Discussion Questions

  1. What insight, principle, or observation from this week’s sermon was the most helpful, eyeopening, or troubling? Explain.
  2. How would you explain the difference between being transformed by God’s grace and taking advantage of it?
  3. Read Romans 6:1-2. Why does Paul ask, “Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase?” How does this challenge any misconceptions about grace?
  4. According to Romans 6:3-4, how does being united with Christ in His death and resurrection empower us to live a new life?
  5. What does it mean to “walk in newness of life” as stated in verse 4? How does grace make this possible?

Next Steps

Consider how your small group can support each other to embrace the transformative power of grace and live in righteousness. Discuss this as you conclude your group time this week.
