Discussion Questions
7 questions1.Weaver grounds the possibility of real change in 2 Corinthians 5:17—"If anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come." What does it mean that we are already new creations, even as we still struggle with old patterns? How do you hold those two realities together?
2.The author is careful to distinguish between positional truth (who we are in Christ) and experiential reality (how we actually live). Why is it important to understand both, and what goes wrong when we emphasize one without the other?
3.Weaver uses the image of renovation—God as the master contractor who wants to gut the house and rebuild it properly, not just repaint the walls. What parts of your "house" feel like they might need more than fresh paint right now?
