Apostles’ Creed series – Week 6: June 29, 2025
“He descended into hell…”
Reflect and Recap:
What stood out to you from this message? Was there something about Jesus’ descent to the dead that was new or surprising to you?Facing Mortality with Faith:
The Chapel of Bones says, “We bones here, for yours await.” How often do you reflect on your own mortality? How might remembering that you will die actually help you live more fully for Jesus?Fear Not:
Jesus has the keys to death and Hades. He has conquered the grave. Where in your life are you still living in fear? How can the reality of Jesus’ victory over death change your posture in those areas?Living Resurrection Now:
If we truly believed that death is not the end and that resurrection life awaits us, how might that shape our generosity, our courage, or our compassion?Jesus, the Rescuer:
The sermon described Jesus as the heroic diver, plunging into the deep to bring us up. Where in your life do you need to be reminded that Jesus comes for you—that He’s with you even in the dark?Proclaiming Victory with Our Lives:
Jesus proclaimed his victory to every realm—heaven, earth, and under the earth. What does it look like for us to proclaim that same victory in our homes, neighborhoods, and relationships?
Bonus Question
Has everyone in our group personally said “yes” to Jesus and been baptized as a public declaration of faith? If not, we would love to take that step with you at our August 24 River Baptism.
If everyone in your group has already taken that step, who do you know—friend, family, co-worker—who hasn’t yet? How can your group pray intentionally for them this summer?
