[Note to leaders: These are long texts that you may just want to talk through or read shorter portions of or just pick one of the following "Super Traits"]

4. Christ is a MODEL to Follow (Luke 24-Road to Emmaus & to Eternity) Why was Christ so emphatic to his disciples about learning Scripture? Why did he instruct them focus all their Scriptural knowledge towards Him? Do you think Christ was modeling our potential heavenly body in this text? Why or why not?

5. Christ is a MENDER of the Fallen (John 21-Peter’s Reinstatement) Why did Jesus ask Peter three times if he loved him? How do you Peter was changed by this event in Jn. 21?

8. What do you look forward to most when Christ "returns the same way he left"?

9. Epitaph from Indiana Tombstone: Pause, stranger when you pass me by:

So prepare for death and follow me.

Someone added later: To follow you I’m not content,

Until I know which way you went!

What do you want on your headstone?
