Week 10: Review & Reflection

1.Looking back across the entire book, which chapter or idea hit you most unexpectedly — either because it challenged a belief you held, named something you'd long felt but couldn't articulate, or simply broke through in a new way? What made it land so hard?

2.Piper's central thesis is that God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him, and that a life built on this foundation cannot be wasted. Has your understanding of this thesis deepened, shifted, or been confirmed over the course of your study? Where do you still have unanswered questions or lingering doubts?

3.The book covers several specific 'forms' of a wasted life — pursuing comfort and security, avoiding risk, compartmentalizing faith, living for retirement, spending without Kingdom purpose. Which of these forms of waste is most characteristic of the temptations you personally face? Be specific.
