Wondering Questions
…Is there a sacred/secular wall of any kind still standing in your life? If so, are you
leaning more into an ascetic or libertine split?
…What might change if you stood in the center and trusted that the split is already
resolved in Christ? How might you live differently if you could see all of life as holy
ground?
…Where might you be holding tightly to your own “freedom” or “rights” without noticing
how it impacts a friend or brother or sister with a different conscience?
…Where might you be using personal convictions to measure the faith of others, instead of letting God’s
love be the greatest law in your relationships?
….What might change if you began to view your physical limitations not as barriers to
God’s work… but as the very places where His light and grace can shine through most
brightly?
…If you truly believed that your body… even with all its weariness, aches, or limitations…
is already the holy dwelling place of the Spirit, how might you treat yourself differently
this week?
…Where have you been tempted to relate like an ascetic… withdrawing into a safe, holy
bubble out of fear of being contaminated by a messy, secular world?
…Where might you be relating like a libertine… treating your own sinning as irrelevant to
your faith, or ignoring how your actions impact the people around you?
[s52] …What could change if you truly believed that Christ’s grace in you is stronger and
far more contagious than any sinful or messy person you may encounter this week…
even in your bathroom mirror?
