I plan to write many more “Below-the-Surface” (BTS) questions — they’re fun to write! — so these five are just a start. You can use these alone or in a small group. In a small-group setting (3 to 8 people), you may want to pick one question and then invite each person to answer. Sometimes my friends and I will spend 1-2 hours sharing about our lives in response to just one question. So one question can be very powerful — it can be a door to transformation.

QUESTION 1: What part of you do you resent the most, and why?

QUESTION 2: What part of you do you love the most, and why?

QUESTION 3: Close your eyes and imagine yourself receiving love. What image pops up, and why?

QUESTION 4: Close your eyes and imagine yourself giving love. What image pops up, and why?

QUESTION 5: If God gave you the power today to forgive one person completely, who would you forgive, and why?
