Our times of reflection* may take many forms but here are a few suggestions:

• Think about one or two things from the message that struck you by reviewing your notes or this outline.
• What did you learn (or re-learn) about who God is, about who you are, about the person and work of Christ, about how God wants to change you?
• Did this message reveal any wrong thinking or any attitudes or behaviors that are not Christlike?
• What steps can you take to put into practice what you’ve heard?

Don’t be afraid to quietly discuss these things with your family or a friend during this time.

* Reflection is defined as “serious thought or consideration”.
