Questions for Personal Reflection:
1. What are some ways the church can be “securing the beachhead” instead of advancing the gospel? What are some ways we can be doing this in our own lives?
2. Why is it so important to see the gospel indicatives (what has been done) being the ground of gospel imperatives (what we are commanded to do)? What is some potential bad fruit of getting this reversed?
3. Read Acts 17:26-27: What are some places you have been sovereignly placed that you can bring the gospel to?
4. Which part of the acronym PLACES do you feel strongest in? Share an example from your life.
5. Which part of PLACES most needs development for you? What might be a next step toward strengthening this area of intentionality?
6. Imagine someone shares with you they are feeling a lot of anxiety trying to be a good parent or a good student or making a team. How might you connect to this person and how might you introduce them to the three circles?
7. To the person in the previous question, how might you describe their situation as belonging to the brokenness of the world but also as a pointer to the gospel as the answer?
