Discussion Questions
7 questions1.John 1:14 says 'the Word became flesh and dwelt among us.' Chan dwells on the staggering nature of the Incarnation. What does it mean for the eternal Son of God to take on human flesh — and why does it matter for your salvation?

3.Chan notes that Jesus lived a fully human life — he got tired, grieved, was tempted — and yet without sin. Why is the full humanity of Jesus as important to the gospel as his full divinity?
