7.9.23 - Exile and Exodus (Kenny Camacho)

SCRIPTURE: 2 Chronicles 36 & Exodus 2-14


REFLECTION/DISCUSSION QUESTIONS:

  1. In what ways can seeing the stories of the Bible as larger narratives about God and humanity deepen our faith?

  2. How has your perspective on certain Biblical stories changed as you've grown in your faith, and how can this new perspective impact your daily life?

  3. What does the story of the Exodus teach us about God, humanity, and our individual relationship with Him?

  4. How does it deepen our understanding of the Exodus story to read from within the context of the Israelites in Exile?

  5. Have you ever felt tempted to “settle” into a situation of suffering? What can these stories teach you?

  6. How can the message of God's responsiveness and compassion be applied to our interactions with others within our community?
