Last Night's Discussion Questions so you can continue the conversation at home:
Happy New Year 2010
Small Group discussion questions


1. Why do you think people facing death actually become more alive? Aren’t we facing death everyday?

2. In the first video, Bill was reading the obituaries. What would you want your obituary to say if you were to die tomorrow? What would you want it to say if you were to die 70 years from now?

3. What would be the things in your life that you were most proud of and that you deemed to be full of the most purpose? What would be the things in your life that you would consider a waste?

4. How would you define a life well lived vs. a life that was wasted? How do you think God would define a life well lived vs. a life that was wasted?

5. Charlie told Bill that they each needed to be accountability partners. What are those and what do they have to do with not wasting your life?

6. In 1 Timothy 6:19, Paul encourages his readers to “take hold of the life that is truly life.” What do you think this type of life looks like today?

7. In your own life, what are the things that hold you back from pursuing all that life has to offer…or do the things that you know are important?

8. What is it that you can change today to begin living a no-regrets life?
