Chan ends not with a to-do list but with a vision — the glorious future of the Church and the God who is even now making all things new. Let these questions help you hold the whole book together and move forward with hope.
Discussion Questions
8 questions1.Chan's final letter is one of hope — even amid all the critique and challenge of the preceding chapters. Why do you think he ends this way? What would have been lost if the book had ended with the final challenge chapter without this note of hope?
2.He returns to the image of the Church as the Bride of Christ, moving toward the wedding supper of the Lamb. How does this eschatological vision — the Church's ultimate destiny — change the way you feel about your present, imperfect church community?
3.Ephesians 3:20–21 declares that God is "able to do far more abundantly than all we ask or think" — and that His glory is to be displayed through the Church and in Christ Jesus. Does this promise feel real to you right now, given everything Chan has surfaced in this book? Where do you need to let this promise land more deeply?
a.What would it look like to pray this promise over your church specifically and concretely?
b.What would change in your engagement with your church if you genuinely believed God wanted to display His glory through it?
