Stewarding the Gospel…of Unfairness

If I run a good race, if I keep the faith, if I obey the law, it seems to be fair that there’s a crown of righteousness and glorious future awaiting me. But how can it be fair for God to do it all, and I just benefit? How can it be right that everyone gets a gift? Who really wants to be treated fairly?

This week’s #WholeLifeTakeAways: 

•  When was a time you screamed the loudest, “That’s not fair”?
• Why do you think it is that we are concerned about fairness?
• When you think about fairness is it about everybody getting the same, or each getting what they deserve, or how is your concept of fairness related to a level playing field?
• What do you think about Jesus parable of paying all the workers what they agreed to or more? How is that fair?
• As a spiritual person how do you stay in touch with the reality of not deserving God’s grace?
• If God’s grace saves while we are dead in sin how much of our being “saved” is our doing?
• How do you feel about being God’s workmanship so that any resemblance of a masterpiece is the master’s work not ours?
• Who is it “fair” for God to offer his grace to and to whom is it “not fair” to have grace offered to them?
