Discussion Questions
8 questions1.The Chans paint a picture of a mission-centered marriage — one that is outward-focused rather than inward-focused. How does this vision compare to what your marriage currently looks like or what you have been taught to aim for?
2.Francis and Lisa describe the early church in Acts 2 as a community marked by generosity, hospitality, and shared life — all in service of a larger mission. How might a married couple embody this kind of community to the people around them?
3.The chapter challenges the way many couples build 'fortresses' — beautiful homes, busy schedules, and full lives that are effectively closed to outsiders. Does this description fit your life? What would it cost you to open up?
a.Who in your neighborhood or workplace is God already putting on your heart?
b.What one practical step could you and your spouse take together to move toward that person this week?
