Summary

In this week's episode, we continue with our book study on the Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe (chapters 9-12). We discuss themes like the false narrative of the enemy, the dynamic of stoney hearts that God wants to restore and turn to flesh, true living of the paschal mystery, and the power of God’s resurrection power in our lives. We hope you enjoy this episode!

Heather’s One Thing - The Abiding Together small groups! We love you!

Sister Miriam’s One Thing - Fire Within- Fr. Thomas Dubay

Michelle’s One Thing - The movie “Gifted”

Journal Questions:

Instead of being child-like, we can be childish with God. What is the difference between these two dynamics that I can see in my own life?
The enemy makes empty promises. What is one empty promise that he has made to me?
What is one promise of God and His faithfulness that I have seen at work in my life?
“Battle looks like surrender.” What is one battle that I need to move into a disposition of surrender to God?

Discussion Questions:

What is one of the false narratives that the enemy has been telling in your life?
What do you think the Father wants to say about that false narrative?
What area of your heart do you feel has been turned to stone or has been hardened? Why?
“Hurting people, hurt people.” How have you experienced this concept and how can we offer a response of healing?
Where have you settled for the dry bread from the enemy instead of the banquet that God is offering you?

Quote to Ponder:

"Aslan is on the move” - (Mr. Beaver) C.S. Lewis - The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe

Scripture for Lectio:

“A new heart I will give you, and a new spirit I will put within you; and I will remove from your body the heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh.” -Ezekiel 36:26
