Reflect
1. Play "Name That Tune" with your group to get started. Go ahead; do it! Does anyone have a favorite "bridge" song?
2. How good are you at judging distances? Got any stories about getting them right or wrong?
3. "God's wrath is not a cranky explosion, but his settled opposition to the cancer of sin which is eating out the insides of the human race he loves with his whole being," writes Becky Pippert. What do you think of that? Have you thought about God's wrath like that before?
4. What is your next step in obedience to God? Is it a conversation you need to have, a prayer, baptism, a class to take, a group to join?
Do
If you have accepted this costly gift of grace, share your story with someone this week. And if you are coming to our Baptism Celebration on June 26th, invite someone to join you to witness countless others declare their love for Jesus to a watching world!
