Crazy Love Chapter 7
This week we had a great discussion around chapter 7 of Francis Chan's Crazy Love. Below are some topics we discussed. Have your answers / thoughts on these questions changed has you've thought about them some more this week?
• "Christians today like to play it safe. We want to put ourselves in situations where we are
safe 'even if there is no God. But if we truly desire to please God, we cannot live that way. We have to
do things that cost us during our life on earth but will be more than worth it in eternity." What are some
ways we/you play it safe?
• God doesn't call us to be comfortable. He calls us to trust Him completely--so much so that
we do not hesitate to put ourselves in situations (with His guidance and blessing, of course) where we
will be in trouble if He does not come through. What are you doing right now, at this season in your life
that requires that radical kind of faith in God?
• Do I really think of each person I come in contact with as if they were Christ? How would my
life change if I did?
-Matthew 25:45 (Least and Lost)
• What do you make of the statement “something is wrong when our lives make sense to
unbelievers?” Do you think that is true statement? Does your life make sense to unbelievers?
• Read 1 John 3:16-20 aloud. What standard does Christ call us to as believers?
• Rather than talking about the sinfulness of owning and buying things, talk about the silliness
of the things you own in light of eternal rewards. What are some of the “silly” things you own. Why are
they special?
