To what extent is our approach to
Anzac Day impacted by our own families and how they responded to the day?
Anzac Day hasn’t always been such a huge day in our country. What do you think has led to its current venerated status?
Reflect on Micah 4.1-4
How does this future vision impact our lives today?
Reflect on Hebrews 10.32-11.1
Most of us have lived our lives in relative peace and prosperity. That hasn’t always been the case for many believers in the past and is still the case for many today. How should we respond to conflict? What bigger perspective should we embrace?
Reflect on John 15.9-17
Why do you think verse 13 has become
almost a motto for those who serve in armed conflicts? Is this what Jesus had
in mind? In what ways may modelling ourselves on him involve sacrifice and
suffering and maybe even loss of life?
What is the fruit we should be
seeking to bring forth?
How should we remember the fallen?
How should we act to ensure that war
is no more?
How should our Christian values
impact the way we live today, both personally and in our community?
What questions still remain for you
in the context of this conversation/reflection?
