The Question We All Must Answer

Here are some discussion questions based on the video transcript:

* **Icebreaker:** Pastor mentioned the importance of sowing seeds of Jesus into children's lives, even playfully comparing it to "PWE baseball." What's a fun or memorable way you remember learning about faith or important life lessons when you were young?

* The lawyer in Luke 10 asked Jesus, "What shall I do to inherit eternal life?" Pastor noted that despite his motives, he went to the right person and asked the right question. In your own words, what makes this question so foundational for humanity, and why do you think people are so fascinated by eternity?

* Jesus responded to the lawyer by asking, "What is written in the law? How do you read that?" Pastor highlighted that Jesus made it both "biblical" and "personal." How do you personally approach understanding and interpreting biblical truths in a way that makes them relevant to your life?

* The lawyer quoted the two greatest commandments: to love God with all your heart, soul, strength, and mind, and to love your neighbor as yourself. Pastor explained that the lawyer struggled with the second part, revealing a deeper issue of pride and elitism.

* **Silent Reflection:** Take a moment to reflect on these two commandments. Consider where you feel strong in living them out, and where you might find yourself "willing to justify yourself" when it comes to loving others, especially those you might perceive as different or "below" you.

* Pastor emphasized that knowing the truth isn't enough; there must be action and application. Jesus's final instruction to the lawyer was, "Go and do thou likewise." What are some practical ways you can "go and do" the truth you know, particularly in showing love and compassion to your "neighbor" in your daily life?

* Pastor shared a powerful story about a man at a gas station who was praying for a sign about God's reality. When have you experienced a moment where God's presence or truth became undeniably real to you, perhaps in an unexpected way?

* Pastor concluded by asking, "What are you going to do with Jesus today?" He stressed that accepting Christ is a simple decision to turn your life over to Him. What might be holding you back from fully embracing or recommitting to this decision, and how might Jesus be inviting you to overcome that obstacle today?
