FLOURISH
Spirit-Led Flourishing in a Hostile World System with Joshua Liem
John 15:18-6:1
What does it mean to truly flourish as Christians in a world that seems increasingly indifferent or hostile to the church? This Sunday, we'll explore Jesus' words about persecution and hatred, uncovering a radical vision of thriving that challenges our cultural norms. Join us as we dive into John 15 and discover how Christ's love empowers us to live differently in a burnout society.

HOME CHURCHES
for reflection & discussion:
In what ways might Christians today face persecution or opposition, if at all? How does this compare to early Christian experiences?
Reflect on the different visions of flourishing presented in the sermon (Zealots, Pharisees, Sadducees). What modern equivalents do you see?
How can we cultivate a "good death" perspective in a culture that often avoids discussing mortality?
What are your thoughts on the eulogy exercise? Have you done one before? (Consider spending 7 minutes writing one out now.) Share any reflections, as openly as you would like, about the exercise.
Discuss the concept of Sabbath. How might rethinking rest challenge our culture's productivity mindset?
