Second Sunday of Easter

If you were not with us on Sunday, you can hear this sermon at http://www.standrewsonline.net/index.php?option=com_content&view=category&id=39&Itemid=79

Jn 20:19-31
1. Can you remember a time when you locked yourself in a room? Was your motivation fear, like the disciples, or something else?
2. Jesus says "peace be with you" three times. How does this relate to the disciple's fears? How does it relate to their call and mission? Where could you use Jesus' peace right now?
3. Think about the resurrection appearances that John has described for us. How does Mary receive Jesus' appearance? How do the disciples in the locked room? How does Thomas? Where do you see yourself?
4. How does Jesus deal with Thomas' doubt? What is significant about the way Thomas responds?
5. With what doubts or questions about God are you struggling? What have you found to be helpful when dealing with doubts?
