We are meeting at the Point Loma Campus.

1st Floor, Room 144 (behind the community room)

After you enter the lobby, walk past the elevators and the community room, go through the double doors on your right, and walk all the way down the walkway almost to the end. Room 144 will be on your right.

Study (6:00pm-7:00pm) and line dancing (7:00pm-8:00pm).

During our study time, we will discuss The Chosen (study below). During our line dancing time, we will learn easy beginner level line dances.

Conversation Starter
What is the most thoughtful gift you ever gave or received?

Big Question, Quotes, and Characters
What is your one BIG question from this episode? (What captured your imagination most, and what would you ask God about the events portrayed?)

What quote from this episode was the most meaningful/impactful to you? Why?

Which characters stood out to you most? Which were most interesting? Most moving?

Episode Questions
1. The episode opens on the tragedy of David and Bathsheba. How does this fit into the themes and story occurring in season 4? (Be sensitive to those who might have experienced infant loss or recent loss in your group please)

2. What is causing Quintus to want the end of Jesus’ ministry?

3. The Pharisees are using the facade of tradition to push back against Jesus. What is their true motivation?

4. Episode 3 ends on an absolute gut punch. How do you think this will affect the apostles?

5. Jesus was asked whose sin caused the blindman's blindness. Do you think God punishes Christians for sinful choices or do Christians suffer the consequence of their sinful choices?

Self-Check
Has your trust in God wavered because He didn't answer a serious prayer request? How can you restore your closeness with Him?

What are some of the different ways God has revealed how much He cares for you? (Example: a song, a Bible passage, a book, an event, something else?)

Continuing the Conversation
How could you encourage someone you know who is discouraged about the way God answers their prayers?
