A Holy People
Apr 8, 2018 • Pastor Christian Simas • 1 Peter 2:9-12
Discussion Questions:
1. What does the concept of “identity” mean to you? What about identity is important?
2. Read Deuteronomy 7:6. What do you think about how Peter uses Old Testament language to describe the Church?
3. Read Matthew 5:14-16 and 1 Peter 2:11-12. In what ways are these passages describing not only a spiritual vision, but also a moral and ethical vision?
4. “From the moment we claim the truth of being the Beloved, we are faced with the call to become who we are.” – Henri Nouwen
– What do you think it means for us to “become who we are”?
5. If we are “a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession,” how does that change how we live our daily lives?
