Freedom in Christ Course
Discussion questions for Session 1 ‘Who am I? 

Pause for thought or breakout room 1

1. What prompted you to come on the Freedom in Christ Course and what are your hopes for it?
   
   
2. What were the consequences of Adam and Eve's sin? What are the ways it caused their relationship with God to change?
   
   
3. What sort of things in our daily lives promise to make us feel accepted, significant, and secure?  
   
   

Pause for thought or breakout room 2

1. John 10:10 says that Jesus came to bring us life in all its fullness. What do you think that might look like in practice?
   
   
2. How might knowing that we are "saints" or "holy ones" instead of "sinners" change how we see ourselves?
   
   
3. What are some of the things that could prevent us from fully knowing that we are now new creations in Christ who are completely forgiven?
   
   

Reflection

1. Get together with one person and have the first person read the "Who I am in Christ" statements (I am accepted, I am significant, I am secure) to the other changing "I am" to "You are". Then swap around.  
   
   
2. Spend a few minutes discussing the statements and the verses they are based on. Share which ones impacted you and why. Spend some time praying for each other, that you will have a deeper understanding that your significance, security, and acceptance are found in Him.
