G1 “When you realize you are not enough, God becomes enough”. Flip this around: if you don’t realize you’re “not enough”, will you still experience the enough-ness of God? Why or why not?
G2 What do you think Dan meant when differentiated between “longing for something” and having “something to long for?” Why might having “something to long for” be an step up from “longing for something”?
G3 What are the benefits of body positivity? Dangers? Why is spirit poverty a better foundation for life than body positivity?
G4 Why might being “poor in spirit” (verse 3) ultimately lead to being “persecuted because of righteousness” (verse 10)?
G5 Why is it important that the Beatitudes are “bookended” by “the Kingdom of heaven is yours”? What even IS the Kingdom of heaven? (This video might help - https://bibleproject.com/explore/video/gospel-kingdom/)
