Bring on the tough stuff - there’s not just one right answer.
- Why are these letters letters?
- Who do you think wrote these books?
- Why does James think God favors the poor so much? Is he into righting wrongs or just being a little bit envious of the rich here?
- God is both über judgmental and endlessly forgiving. Is that a contradiction? Or does it make sense to say that God is both?
- Why did the early Christians embrace suffering so much? Do you think going through tough times makes you a stronger person?
- We think of being "worldly" as a good thing. But these letters think it's sinful. What do you say? Can you be invested in the world and faith at the same time?
- Why are the false teachers such a problem in the Christian community?
- What do you think about our authors' views on the end of the world?
- Why does Jude tell stories from sources that aren't in the Hebrew Bible?
- Who do you think first read these letters? What would they have thought of them?
