​
-
How do you think our culture's understanding of the soul differs from what the Bible teaches, and why does this matter?
-
The Hebrew word 'nephesh' refers to the whole person rather than just a separate soul. How does this change your understanding of what it means to love God with all your soul?
-
Jesus said our souls have infinite value (Matthew 16:26). How should this truth impact the way we view ourselves and others around us?
-
Dallas Willard described the soul as the 'system integrator' that holds everything together. When have you experienced your soul being disconnected from God, and how did it affect other areas of your life?
-
The sermon mentioned that spiritual formation happens through small, everyday decisions. What are some practical ways you can form your soul to become more like Christ?
-
Jesus taught that our souls need rest and that He provides it (Matthew 11:28-29). What are some signs that your soul might be tired, and how can you find rest in Jesus?
-
The parable of the rich man and Lazarus shows two eternal destinations. How does knowing that our souls are eternal change the way we should live today?
-
Jesus said our souls are saved by surrender, not control (John 12:25). What areas of your life might you be trying to control instead of surrendering to God?
