Discussion Questions:

1. What did you learn from a year of talking about being in the workshop of our Master?  How did Jesus blend the workshop with guiding us to the streets and putting things into practice?

2. Do you see your spiritual walk as a race to complete?  Do you know what your specific race is and what the goals should be in completing it? Share this with the group.

3. Why is it important that God started things with a mandate to fill the earth and subdue it?  What should this look like in 2026?  Does it even apply to us?

4. What does it mean to be God’s son (child)?  What responsibilities and blessings come with this role?  How did Jesus restore us through His example and His acts of redemption?

5. How does it help you to see the race set before Jesus and the way He was determined to accomplish it?  How does the model Jesus sets in persevering through the race help you to understand what being human should look like?

6. In what ways have you experienced “agony” running the race God set before you?  What helps you persevere?  How are your trials part of the plan of God for the race you must run?

7. How do you keep your focus on what is eternal instead of seeking what is temporary as the finish line of your race?  What difference has focusing on the eternal made in helping you live life with more fullness?
