Discussion Questions

1. Share a time when your expectations were not met— either because the reality exceeded your expectations OR because the reality was much less than you expected.

2. How does knowing that the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse (conquest, rage, scarcity, death) appear in every age change your perspective? How can we adjust our expectations and be prepared to live well in difficult days?

3. In the message Pastor Quintin discussed our response to the breaking of the seals. They were:
• Believe and share the true gospel.
• Become a faithful peacemaker.
• Live with radical hospitality and generosity.
• Pray boldly and serve compassionately.
• Cultivate patience and courage.
• Trust fully in Jesus.
Which point stood out to you the most? What was your primary takeaway? Which one is more challenging for you?

4. How can your Life Group embrace both patience and courage this week as you gain a new perspective from Revelation 6?

5. How does Revelation 6 help you as you develop friendships, discover stories, and discern next step with your One Life?
