Sermons & Reflection Questions
He Ascended into Heaven, and is Seated at the Right Hand of the Father
12 & 13 Sep
Acts 1:1-11
Dr Mark Chan
- What difference does Christ reigning at the right hand of the Father make to the way you look at (i) your life at the moment, and (ii) what is going on in the world today?
- If Christ were to ask you today, “What would you like me to pray for you?” What would you say to Him?
- How would you do things differently both individually and corporately, knowing that the ascended Christ wants to be heard and encountered in the world today through you?
On the Third Day He Rose Again
5 & 6 Sep
1 Corinthians 15:3-5
Revd Andrew Yap
Opening/Icebreaker
If you could have personally witnessed one event in the life of Jesus, which event would you choose and why?
Discussion Questions
- Paul says, “If Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile” (1 Corinthians 15:17). Why do you think the bodily resurrection of Jesus is so essential to the Christian faith? What would Christianity become if Jesus had died but never risen?
- Paul says that because Christ is risen, we can “live a new life” (Romans 6:4). Where would you most like to see more of Christ’s resurrection life in you at this stage of your life? Perhaps in forgiveness, freedom from shame, relationships, habits, priorities, or your need for approval and recognition?
He Descended to the Dead
29/30 Aug
1 Peter 3:18-20
Revd Dr Christopher Chan
- How has the sermon deepened your understanding of the descent clause, and how does this strengthen your faith in Christ?
He Suffered under Pontius Pilate, was Crucified, Died, and was Buried
22/23 Aug
Isaiah 53:3-9
Revd Daniel Lim
- How does knowing that Jesus entered fully into human suffering and understands your weaknesses help you face your own suffering with faith and hope?
- How does the crucifixion of Christ shape your understanding and response towards sin?
- How might you become complacent about Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross for you, and what can help you respond to it with renewed gratitude and obedience?
