Talk it out
What would it take for you to willingly lay down your life for another? How does this make Christ’s sacrifice even more precious?
Share examples of God’s wrath in the Bible (see here for examples of the same Greek word that Paul uses in Rom. 5:9). In this light, what does being “saved by [Christ] from the wrath of God” mean in this week’s passage?
Live it out
Christ reconciled us to God while we were still sinners. How could you move toward reconciliation with someone who has sinned against you?
As you listen to Yet Not I but through Christ in Me, make a list of ways you are blessed by Christ. How can you share this blessing with others this week?
