In this final session for our Lenten Series Fr. Dave and Fr. Alex discuss the difference between resurrection and resuscitation, why Martha is an example to us all as we ask questions to Jesus and what the story of Lazarus reveals to us about our own future.

Discussion questions:

1. Martha challenged Jesus. How comfortable are you with raising sharp questions to Jesus in prayer?
2. What did you hear the difference between resuscitation and resurrection?
3. Where does resurrection exist in your spiritual life?

In this episode Fr. Dave and Fr. Alex discuss the healing of the man born blind, why the Pharisees were blind to what Jesus was doing, and how we need to check our blind spots.

Thanks for watching and listening to this year's Lenten series: Not by Bread Alone.

Here are your discussion questions.

1. An ongoing theme in the Gospel of John center around darkness and light, sight vs blindness. What do you think Jesus meant when he pointed out the blindness of the Pharisees who were criticizing his healing on the sabbath?

2. Being aware of our blind spots is vital to a healthy spiritual life where we run from sin and run towards grace. What are some of your blind spots when it comes to personal accountability and the spiritual practices that help us grow in our relationship with God?

In this episode Fr. Dave and Fr. Alex discuss why it feels like Jesus and Nicodemus are having two different conversations, why the loneliness epidemic is everyone's problem, and what it means that God won't leave us alone.

In this episode, Fr. Dave and Fr. Alex start their Lenten Season Series "Not by Bread Alone". Over the next several weeks of Lent, the guys will discuss what it means to depend on God rather than the world.

In week 1, we find Jesus in the wilderness being tempted by Satan. The first temptation, in the face of severe hunger, is for Jesus to turn stones into bread. Jesus replies that "one doesn't live by bread alone but rather by every word that comes from the mouth of God."

Table Talk Questions

1. In the ancient world, bread was the staple food, the most basic nutrition that people had in order to live. But Jesus says that the Word of God is more important than even that. Discuss your relationship to God's word. Do you read the Bible regularly? Do you find comfort and strength in Scripture or do you find yourself more often than not confused by what you read?

2. Jesus faced real temptation because he is both God and human. What does it mean for you and for us that Jesus faced temptation just like we do?

In this episode Fr. Dave and Fr. Alex reflect on the question of just how much blame we lay at the Devil's feet for what humans do, contemplate what it means that its our very self that needs to be changed, and why one of the greatest promises of God is that we will be just like Jesus.

In this episode Fr. Dave and Fr. Alex discuss the meaning of Kingdom, why almost none of us can speak with what it's like to live in a kingdom, and why our imaginations pale in comparison to God's imagination.

In this episode Fr. Dave and Fr. Alex resist the urge to talk football (Go Seahawks!), discuss what it means to be wise or a fool in the eyes of the world, and why we are called to be fools for Jesus.

In this episode Fr. Dave and Fr. Alex discuss what the first words that Jesus says in the gospel of Matthew are more about love than fear, and why Jesus sought out fishermen who could mend nets.
