TEACHING: The Hard Truth, Part 3

Naked and ashamed, we are far more broken that we are willing to admit. Shame sculpts the soul and gives birth to fear. Only the gospel paves the way back.

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS FOR SHEPHERD GROUPS

  1. What was one thing you found particularly interesting, insightful, helpful or difficult to understand from this Sunday?
  2. Would you consider yourself a vulnerable person? Is it easy for you to open up to others? Why or why not?
  3. Read and discuss Genesis 2:25-3:13. What do these verses tell us about us? What do these verses tell us about God? What do you observe about shame from these verses?
  4. Share a time when you were ashamed. How does shame drive us away from vulnerability?
  5. How does shame “sculpt the soul” and give birth to fear? What does fear lead us to do? What kind of people does fear lead us to be?
  6. How do we hide from God, others and ourselves?
  7. In what ways do we tend to cover our brokenness? What are your go-to “fig leaves”?
  8. How does scripture provide us with a reference point through which to view ourselves, others, and the world?
  9. How does the gospel of Jesus call us out of shame, fear and self-atonement?
  10. Read and discuss Hebrews 12:1-2. What shame in your life do you need to despise? Where do you need to be vulnerable and honest with someone else? With yourself? With God? What is one step toward vulnerability that you can take in each of these areas? Spend some time in prayer in prayer about this and ask the members of your group to help you be accountable to take those steps.
