Discussion Questions
8 questions1.Which chapter or theme from Even Better than Eden has stayed with you most persistently since you read it? Why do you think that particular theme resonated so deeply — what does it touch in your own story or longings?
2.Before you began this book, how would you have described what Christians are ultimately hoping for? How has that description changed — in its content, its vividness, or its emotional weight — after nine weeks of tracing these themes?
3.Guthrie's core thesis is that God's story ends better than it began — that the new creation surpasses Eden in every dimension. Is there any aspect of that thesis that you still find difficult to fully embrace? What questions remain?
