G1 What struck you about Pastor Li’s story? How can passages like Luke 14:25-33 result in dangerous or unhealthy consequences if not dealt with wisely? What verses in the Bible can bring balance to Luke 14?
G2 How do the twin passages of Luke 14:28 and Matthew 10:37 fill in the gaps left by the other passage? What are the differences? Similarities?
G3 What is the difference between “explaining” a text and “explaining away” a text? Why is it valuable to sit with difficult passages and not move on too quickly to something ‘easier’?

G5 What is Jesus trying to get at in the examples of the tower and the war? How can going “all in” with Jesus be like planning to build a tower or plan a war?
