SMALL GROUP DISCUSSION

- What kinds of "things" was Paul referring to in Romans 8:37? (read Romans 8:35) If these are the things that the early church faced, what kinds of "things" are you facing today?

- Have you ever thought of yourself as a conqueror? How can you be? And what does it mean to be more than a conqueror?

- If nothing can separate us from God's love (see Romans 8:39), how does that change the way we look at times of trial or crisis? Would those who do not share your hope in Christ be able to see that assurance in your life? Whether they could or could not, how can you help them gain the eternal perspective need?
