Discussion Questions

1. How have you experienced and received the grace of God? Share a testimony of God’s grace for you. 

 

2. What is union with Christ?  Why is this one doctrine called the “theological shorthand for the gospel itself”? (Romans 6:2-5)

 

3. Discuss these quotes:  “Growing in Christ is . . . deepening. Implicit in the notion of deepening is that you already have what you need. Christian growth is bringing what you do and say and even feel into line with what, in fact, you already are…Real change occurs through this reality: the life of God is in the soul of Man. – Dane Ortlund” 

 

4. What resonates with your own life experience with Paul’s example of his war with sin as a believer? (Romans 7:15-25)
