For what in your life right now do you need some strong reassurance of God’s forgiveness and mercy? (Exod 32:7)
Knowing God has been loving and forgiving with you, who do you feel the Spirit is nudging you to love and forgive in the same way? (Psa 51:1)
What was the most wise and inspiring advice you received while preparing to be a leader in the church? (1 Tim 1:12)

This week’s Reflect & Connect questions written by Rod Boriack.
How to Use these Questions
These questions are intended to stimulate conversation on the Revised Common Lectionary texts for the coming week. They are designed to be accessible to individuals and groups (and not limited to preachers) who are reading the lectionary texts in advance of worship.
Working Preacher's Reflect & Connect questions may also prepare the soil for preachers and their listeners. Congregations or preachers may choose to send out a question (or questions) via email or social media -- each question is short enough to tweet.
If you do share the questions online, please use the hashtag #WorkingPreacher and link back to the site (http://www.workingpreacher.org/). No further permissions are required to use this content.
If you have specific suggestions, general comments or words of encouragement related to Working Preacher's Reflect & Connect discussion questions, please let us know via email at cbp@luthersem.edu. Thanks for participating, and for sharing these questions with your colleagues and members of your congregation!
