Questions for discussion and reflection:

When have you noticed God’s presence this week?
When have you felt God’s absence?

What sort of soil is your heart right now? Stone path? Rocky ground? Full of weeds and thorns? Good soil?

What kind of seeds has God planted in you?

How might God be calling you to plant seeds (of hope, peace, forgiveness, blessing, abundance) in the lives of others?

Imagine a small community of “Christians who really lived like Christians” by embodying hope, peace, forgiveness, and abundance. What might be different about our neighborhood? Our city? Our politics?

What would it take to live that way together?
