This morning, Dave Blow starts us into a new series looking at what it means to be resurrection people. What do we do know that Christ has risen and death is defeated?

Please find the slide deck for this week's teaching here.

Home Church Questions:

1. What stood out to you from this week's teaching?

2. Describe a time when something made sense only in hindsight. What changed your perspective?

3. Read Luke 24:13-35 (preferably in multiple translations). What stands out to you from this passage? What emotions do you notice in the two disciples? What surprises you about how Jesus interacts with them?

4. The disciples say, “We had hoped…”. What does that reveal about their expectations of Jesus?

5. Why do you think they were kept from recognizing Jesus at first? What might this teach us about how God works in our lives?

6. Jesus opens the scriptures to them before revealing himself. Why is this significant? What does it say about how we come to understand Jesus?

7. Have you experienced a “we had hoped” moment in your life? What did that season feel like?

8. Can you think of a time when you later realized God was present… but you didn’t see it at the time? What does this story teach us about doubt, confusion, or disappointment in faith?

9. Where might Jesus be walking with you right now—even if you don’t fully recognize him?

10. Pray with and for one another, our church community, and our world.
