Preparing for Sunday is a resource for clergy and the laity to get ready for the upcoming Sunday using a text from the Revised Common Lectionary. This week’s text is from Luke 6:27-38.
Do you have questions or answers to the questions? Leave them in the comments.
1. Is love just a feeling, or is it also action?
2. In verse 31 Jesus says the following: “Do to others as you would have them do to you.” This is commonly known as the Golden Rule. What do you think this means to you?
3. Who is an enemy as found in verse 29? What does it mean to love an enemy? How did Christ love his enemies? Is it possible for us to love our enemies?
4. What does it mean to show mercy to people? Can you think of a time mercy was shown to you?
5. What does loving our enemies or giving with no expectations have to do with God’s generosity?
What are your answers? What are your questions? Feel free to share them by responding to this post in the comments section or sending an email to info@fccsaintpaul.org.
