Discussion Questions for “7 Reasons We Read the Bible Differently, Part 2: Blindspots, Pride and Fear”

These questions are here to stimulate dialogue about today’s topic – feel free to skip around or discuss items not listed here.

  1. Have you ever made a snap judgment against someone based on a first impression?  What changed your mind?
  2. How do people buy into an idea without realising it?
  3. Read James 2:1-13.  What is the situation James describes in this passage?  How is this replicated in our culture and time?  
  4. What is the root issue of favouritism and prejudice? 
  5. How can you be intentional about broadening the voices that influence your worldview?  In what ways do entertainment, social media, books and podcasts influence our perspective?
  6. How does Jesus motivate and challenge us to see with new eyes?
  7. The Adventist pioneers insisted on not having a creed and advocating “present truth.”  Do you think it’s possible to have unity without a creed? 

Thank you for coming today and contributing to our discussion.
