Leader Hints are designed to help guide a leader to some information that we want to “tease” out of the group. They are not there for you to directly read to the participants. People are significantly more likely to remember things they said or came up with, so your goal is to help direct them to that answer.
FINAL NOTE: Our goal is to get to the [APPLICATION QUESTION] to help work with people through how to apply what God is doing in their life.
INTRO:
- Icebreaker: If you could witness any historical event firsthand, which one would you choose and why?
REBUILD THE SERMON:
- Why might Easter be considered a “weak link” for some people’s faith?
- What are your thoughts on the resurrection story from Mark 16:1-3 & 6-7? Does it sound real or make-believe to you?
- Have you ever questioned the reality of the resurrection? How did you deal with those doubts?
- What are the three reasons given in the sermon to put faith in Jesus’ resurrection? Which one resonates most with you and why?
- How do the accounts of Jesus’ resurrection in Luke 24:11, Matthew 28:17, and John 20:25 challenge modern skepticism?
- Why is it significant that women were the first witnesses to Jesus’ resurrection in all four gospel accounts?
- How do historical references from Tacitus, Josephus, and the Munich Talmud support the resurrection narrative?
- What does the willingness of Jesus’ disciples to die for their belief in his resurrection suggest about their conviction?
Application Question:
- What specific steps can you take this week to strengthen your faith and address any “weak links” you might have?
- Take up prayer requests and pray together.
