Lean In:

Look Out:

  • Do you think culture makes people more curious about Heaven—or more confused? Why?

Look Down: READ John 14:1-6 & Revelation 21:1-4

  • What stands out in these verses and/or the weekend message? Questions? Reactions?

Look In: 5 Realities about Heaven:

1. HEAVEN IS REAL

  • Why is it difficult for people to truly believe Heaven is a real place?

  • How does trusting Jesus influence your confidence about Heaven’s reality?

  • What changes in your daily life when you genuinely believe eternity is real?

2. HEAVEN IS HOME

  • What stands out to you about Jesus describing Heaven as “the Father’s house”?

  • How does knowing Heaven is home for believers reshape your identity today?

  • In what ways do people try to make this world their “home” instead?

3. HEAVEN IS NOW

  • What does it mean that Heaven is happening right now?

  • How should this truth impact the way you handle stress, fear, or uncertainty?

  • What would it look like to “live by faith, not by sight” this week?

4. HEAVEN IS FUTURE

  • What excites you most about the picture of the new Heaven and new Earth?

  • How does the promise of no more pain, death, or sorrow affect your perspective on current struggles?

  • Why do you think God gives us such detailed glimpses of the future?
