John 20:19-30

Read John 20:19-30

1. What stuck out to you in the passage?

2. Jesus appears and says “Peace be with you”. What is this peace, and what does it really mean in context for the disciples, and what does it mean for us?

3. Jesus was sent by the Father and is now sending the disciples (verse 21). We can read Acts and the rest of the NT to see how this played out for them. How does it, or should it. play out for us now? How could it/does it play out specifically for you?

4. Thomas shows almost flagrant doubt in a resurrected Christ. How does Jesus’ response to him inform how we see Christ, and how we see our own doubts and failures?

5. The passage said we have peace in Christ, are blessed in Christ, and have life in Christ. What would it look like for you to daily live in the reality of these truths?
