Forgiven
Part 1 of Inner Peace
DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
- 1. What are some of your inner struggles or unmet needs that disrupt your peace?

- 3. How does God forgive us guilty sinners without compromising his own justice? How do you think God sees you and feels towards you? What difference does it make in the way you live?

Cherished
Part 2 of Inner Peace
DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
- 1. When have you wished very much that you wanted to be admitted into a particular group or to experience someone’s favour? What did you do to try and get it?

- 3. What kind of difference would it make to the way we live if we truly understood that God has admitted us and cherishes us?

Victorious
Part 3 of Inner Peace
DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
- 1. Why is it important to start, as most people do, not with our desires or problems, but with the origin and meaning of our existence?
- 2. We are all guilty of using God to try and achieve our own omega points. How do you do this? Why wouldn’t it work?
- 3. If Jesus is the Alpha and the Omega, what does that imply about everything in between? How does this make a difference to all the issues you are facing or struggling with now in your life?
