"When You Painted On Earth" (May 3 - Chapters 41 thru 43)

Below are the questions that you'll use for your small group discussion. Additionally, we'll be taking some time out of this session to have a "white board" group discussion. I'm looking forward to seeing you!!

• When people (you, perhaps?) talk about Eternity being boring … from where do you suppose this thinking originates? Please give an example.
• How does a boring Heaven reflect upon God as being boring?
• Other world religions have a concept of Heaven (Eternity). Share an example of that concept, either from personal knowledge or through knowledge shared by another person.
• How does that concept of Heaven compare with what the author is portraying?
• The author states, "Every day on the New Earth will be a new opportunity to live out the dreams that matter most." What activity, task, or dream are you looking forward to doing in Eternity?
• Discuss, as a group, the differences/similarities of the "lifeboat" theology vs the "ark" theology.
• Discuss, as a group, the concepts of entertainment, arts, sports, etc. in Eternity. Specifically, if they will exist or not. Explain your answer.
• The author states, "God wired us this way" in describing various activities we'd experience in Eternity. He further states, "We were made to live vibrant lives." Describe what this looks like to you and how it may differ from another person's understanding.

PLUS ULTRA

Blessings!!!
