Easter Sunday Circle Discussion Guide

Bottom Line:  You should not seek to experience the presence of Jesus without knowing the power of Jesus.

Open your time in prayer. Ask the Lord to meet with you personally and as a group. Ask the Lord to open your heart to what he wants to teach you during this time.

Spend some time reading John 20:1-18.

• Why do you think the disciples went home? When do we leave a place to meet Jesus too quickly?

• What would it mean to you for Jesus to call you by name?  How would that change your life?

• Describe a time when you have felt all alone? What do you need during that time?

• Why did Jesus tell Mary not to cling to him? In what ways  do try to cling to the presence of Jesus and miss the power of Jesus?

• How can you allow Jesus to be your discipler and not just your deliverer?

• How can you live in power of the resurrection? How can you demonstrate the power of the resurrection?

Close with a time of prayer. Pray for each other that you would live in the power of Jesus by the fullness of the Spirit.
