G1 Psalm 118:24-25 | What do you make of the tension between these two verses? Do you think that society or culture today helps or hinders our ability to hold truths in tension?
G2 Another word for tension is “paradox”. What is the difference between a paradox and a contradiction? If you’re not sure, google it.
G3 Dan said that Psalm 118:19-29 is an architecture of prayer. What are the four components to this structure (it starts with “gates” in verse 20)?
G4 Dan said that “The more unpredictable your life is, the more important it is that your connection to God is predictable. Boring even. I am a strong proponent of a boringly predictable connection to God. Not that God is boringly predictable. But your means of connecting TO God should be” What did he mean by this? Do you agree?
G5 Dan talked at the end about using timers on his watch and a prayer bracelet / Anglican Rosary to help him remember to connect with God. If you want to know more about it, talk to Dan or watch this video: https://youtu.be/40bo4YBGDU4. What did you think about this idea of using prayer beads?
G6 Why is an architecture of prayer so important, according to Dan? What architecture can you give your prayers (the A.C.T.S. prayer, the P.R.A.Y., the A.L.T.A.R. prayer?) To find out more, google “Acronym Prayers” for ideas?
