Dinner Discussion

2. What would your church or community look like if it was a reconciling community?


Intentionality

______________________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________________

Discussion break

1. Elena said that sometimes churches “expect diversity to happen simply because they desire it.” This expectation can operate within our institutions but also within our personal lives. How have you seen this at work within your personal lives, at work or in ministry? Did this yield the results you desired?

______________________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________________

2. What do you think about the 75% rule? If your church or organization operated by this principle, what would change?

______________________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________________


3. Elena challenged us to recognize that “intentionality is not the same as good intentions.” What moves could you or your community make to intentionally pursue diversity?

______________________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________________

Vulnerability

______________________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________________

3. How does vulnerability enable you to practice confession? What structures exist in your church or Christian community that allow you to engage with vulnerability through confession?

practice intentionality and vulnerability. ______________________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________________

2. What people in your life are you regularly accountable to? Do you have relationships where you have intentional and vulnerable conversations? Consider how relational vulnerability can be a spiritual practice as you seek to integrate your faith into all of your life.

______________________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________________

3. Ask God where you should be practicing more intentionality. How are you being called into the mission of God and what intentional steps can you make in that direction?

Repentance and Remembrance

______________________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________________

Discussion break

2. Share an experience like Elena’s car story where remembrance informed your perspective.

______________________________________________________________________________

Response Song

“Purge Me” by Urban Doxology

Prayer Prompt

The Church is described as a body and “the body should be aware of the pain of any part. Lament helps us connect with all those parts.” Share some of the things in society, or in your personal life, that you are lamenting.

● Optional: Invite people to light candles and offer a short prayer for the things that break their heart.


Accountability Partner Discussion Questions 1. The book of Psalms gives us language to pray Scripture. Read Psalms 10 and

13, which are psalms of lament. Write some prayers about race, class, and the challenges of reconciliation using these psalms.

______________________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________________

2. Lament is confessional. It helps us express our honest feelings towards God and the world but also helps us recognize where we are complicit in the things we lament. How can you practice confession within your laments?

______________________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________________


3. This session ended with a challenge to live in the tension of truth, both the truth of your personal and collective histories. Take some time to explore parts of American history that are unfamiliar to you and consider what it means to live in the tension of truth. Name some of the truths that are difficult for you acknowledge within your history.

“Earth Shall Know” by Urban Doxology

Prayer Prompt

Pray for your community to develop an increased desire for unity in diversity.



1. David talked about three different cultural responses to sin and salvation. Consider which of these cultural perspectives you best fit into. How might this shape the way you understand your faith? How could another cultural lens be a gift to you in understanding the ways of God?
