Jesus is King. The Passage: 1 Peter 2.11-17 Know K1 What stood out to you from Sunday's passage or message? Was there a phrase, image, or idea that struck you most? Grow G1 Foreigners & Exiles: Peter calls Christians “foreigners and exiles.” What does that image evoke for you? Where in your life do you feel that sense of being out of place because you follow Jesus? G2 The Real Battleground: Peter insists the primary “culture war” is within us (sinful desires waging war against the soul). What does fighting that inner battle honestly look like for you right now? G3 Living Good Lives: Peter says to “live such good lives among the pagans” that even if they accuse us, they still see ourgood deeds. What is one way Christians can be misunderstood today, and how can good deeds speak louder than those misunderstandings? G4 Breaking Out of Echo Chambers: Where are you tempted to retreat into a Christian bubble or an ideological echo chamber? What would it look like to be more curious, listening, and present with those who see the world differently? G5 Submitting to Authority: Peter's call to submit to authorities was written during Nero's reign. How do you wrestle with submission to imperfect leaders today? What helps you foster a Christlike posture? G6 — Living Free / Living as Slaves: Peter says we are free people—but also God's slaves. How does that paradox reshape the way we think about our rights, our conduct, and our witness? Show S1 — Where might Jesus be inviting you this week to step into the Exile Lifestyle in a practical way— fighting the internal battle, doing good among neighbours, or submitting with humility? What is one step of obedience or repentance you sense God prompting in you?

What did you notice about the people around Jesus on the cross—the rulers, soldiers, bystanders, and criminals? GROW G1 Jesus says, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.” Where in the passage do you see people acting without understanding? Why do you think Jesus highlights their lack of awareness? G2 Dan highlights four groups who needed forgiveness. Which group do you personally relate to at different times in your life—the indifferent bystander, the one who sneers, the one who mocks, or the one who lashes out from a place of pain? G3 Luke shows that in this moment multiple Old Testament prophecies were being fulfilled. How does seeing Jesus' death as part of God's long-planned rescue mission strengthen your trust in God's sovereignty or compassion? G4 A major theme was the contrast between what Jesus did (he forgave) and what he did not do (he did not save himself). Why is it significant that our forgiveness depended on Jesus refusing to save himself? G5 The second criminal recognized Jesus, admitted his own guilt, and simply said, “Remember me.” Why do you think this humble, two-word prayer was enough for Jesus to respond with such grace? G6 In your own life, where do you sense Jesus gently saying, “I am better”—better than the idols, distractions, or alternative “saviours” that compete for your heart? What does that invitation mean for you right now? SHOW S1 Where do you need to turn toward Jesus today—in repentance, in trust, or in surrender? What might it look like for you to say, in your own way, “Jesus, remember me,” and to receive his forgiveness and presence this week?

On this episode of This vs. That, we explore one of the most important yet often misunderstood aspects of Christian marriage: sex. We sit down with Scott Mehl, pastor of Cornerstone Church of West LA and author of Redeeming Sex and Marriage, to discuss the difference between self-centered sex and God-centered sex.We tackle questions like: What is God's design for sex and marriage? Why does physical intimacy get complicated even in the best of marriages? And what is the larger story that sex is telling?Scott shares from his own journey—the confusion he and his wife Lauren experienced early in their marriage, and how that led him to search for what God actually says about this sensitive topic.We discuss the five purposes of sex, including how it serves as an expression of the relationship between Christ and the church.We also address the practical side: how selfishness shows up in the bedroom, why viewing sex as a "need" can be problematic, and how the gospel speaks directly to our sexual brokenness.Throughout our conversation, we emphasize that God-centered sex is ultimately spouse-focused sex—a reflection of selfless love that points us to something greater.----For more information about Anchored Virtual, visit anchoredvirtual.com

Would our faith, worship, and ministry carry on? Why or why not? Grow G1 In verses 5–6, the disciples are impressed by the beauty of the temple. Why do you think people can so easily be drawn to the visible, tangible parts of faith (buildings, music, programs) rather than to God Himself? G2 Jesus tells them that even the most impressive religious structures can come down. How does this challenge the ways we attach our sense of stability, identity, or faithfulness to physical things? G3 What are some modern “temples”—things that are good gifts but can subtly move from aids to worship into objects of worship? G4 In verses 7–11 Jesus speaks of upheaval, uncertainty, and things falling apart. How does trusting Jesus help us stay steady when the externals of life (or church life) feel shaky? G5 Jesus promises His presence and His words when trials come (vv.14–15). How have you seen God strengthen you or give you words when you felt unprepared or overwhelmed? G6 Verses 16–19 speak of endurance. What does faithful endurance look like today—not in dramatic persecution only, but in everyday discipleship? Show S1 Reflect honestly: What “temple” or “aid to worship” in your own life is at risk of becoming an idol—something you might cling to more tightly than Jesus Himself? What is one step you can take this week to re-centre your heart on Him?

What did you learn about who the Sadducees were and what they believed? Grow G1 — The Sadducees tried to trap Jesus with a question about marriage in the resurrection. Why do you think people sometimes try to make faith seem unreasonable or absurd? G2 — Jesus says that in the “age to come” there will be no marriage or being given in marriage. What does this teach us about how different life in the resurrection will be from life now? G3 — How does understanding that marriage on earth is a symbol pointing toward the union of Christ and the Church change the way we see marriage today? G4 — Jesus reminds us that in the resurrection we will be like the angels — not angels, but unable to die and fully alive to God. How does that reshape your picture of heaven? G5 — Think about Jesus quoting Moses at the burning bush — “I am the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.” What does this reveal about God's view of life, death, and resurrection? G6 — Dan said, “What you believe about heaven will change how you live life on earth.” How might a strong theology of heaven affect your perseverance, priorities, and perspective today? Show S1 — The sermon mentioned that people enduring hardship — from enslaved Africans to those World Hope serves — often draw strength from their hope of heaven. How can you bring that same hope into your community this week? What's one way your group could practice being a “family of God” here and now?
