Discussion Questions:
Why are we drawn so often to focus on the dot instead of a larger picture? How does hope help you see more than your immediate circumstances?
What is the advantage to being a slave to Jesus?
How difficult do you find it to have a heart of praise and worship when you are facing an extreme trial?
In Acts 16 we see people enslaved by spiritual warfare, prejudice, a bad job situation, and persecution for doing good, however, each one is set free through hope in Jesus. What kinds of things have you felt enslaved by and how does Jesus offer you hope and freedom?
How have you seen “belief in the LORD Jesus” bring order to chaos; healing to the broken; hope to the hopeless; transformation to what needs changing; and freedom to the enslaved?
