Saints & Scoundrels: Who Really Broke Eden?
What if one of the Bible's most misunderstood people isn't who you've always been told she was? For centuries, Eve has been portrayed as the woman who ruined everything, but what if we've been reading more into the story than Scripture actually says? In this message from Robyn Elliott, we begin our Saints & Scoundrels series by taking a fresh look at Eve, uncovering how cultural assumptions have shaped our understanding of her story, and discovering what Genesis really reveals about equality, shame, blame, and the God who still calls us out of hiding. Discussion Questions: 1. Before this message, what words or ideas immediately came to mind when you thought of Eve? Where do you think those impressions came from? 2. Why do you think people naturally gravitate toward heroes and villains? How has that shaped the way we read Scripture? 3. What challenged you most about looking at Genesis with "fresh eyes" instead of relying on assumptions or traditions? 4. If Adam and Eve were given the same calling to rule together, what implications does that have for how we understand relationships, leadership, and the image of God? 5. Have you ever discovered that something you always believed the Bible taught wasn't actually in the text? How did that affect your faith? 6. We spend so much time asking why Eve listened to the serpent that we rarely stop to ask why Adam stayed silent. What was happening in him? Was it fear? Passivity? Curiosity? Had he already made up his mind? Genesis doesn't answer every question, but it certainly refuses to let Adam off the hook. 7. Shame caused Adam and Eve to hide, but God still came looking for them. How have you experienced shame causing you to hide from God or others? 8. Where do you see blame replacing responsibility in today's culture? How do Adam and Eve each respond differently when confronted by God? 9. Are there labels or stories that other people have placed on you that you've begun to believe? What does God's voice say that's different?

Unveiling the Apocalypse: Where Do We Go When We Die?
Have you ever wondered whether everything you've been taught about heaven is actually what the Bible says? What if the greatest hope of Christianity isn't escaping this world, but seeing God make all things new? In this message from Robyn Elliott, we unpack Revelation's breathtaking conclusion, challenge some of our biggest assumptions about heaven and the rapture, and discover why our future hope changes how we live right here, right now. Discussion Questions: 1. When you hear the word "heaven," what images or assumptions immediately come to mind? Where do you think those ideas came from? 2. What stood out to you most from this message? Why do you think it resonated, or challenged you, or even confused you? 3. Revelation ends with heaven coming to earth rather than people escaping earth. How does that reshape the way you understand God's ultimate plan? 4. Why do you think "escape theology" has become so compelling throughout church history? What needs or fears does it speak to? 5. Jesus spent far more time caring for people's present suffering than describing the afterlife. What might that teach us about what following Jesus looks like? And how does that shape the way we love people? 6. How does understanding books like Matthew and Revelation within a first-century Jewish and Roman context affect the way we read difficult biblical passages? What resources do you use or find helpful when studying the Bible and understanding context and theology? 7. This message suggests that theology has practical consequences. Can you think of ways certain beliefs about the future influence how Christians engage (or disengage) with justice, compassion, and the world around them? 8. Which gives you more hope: the idea of going somewhere else after death, or the promise that God is making all things new? Why? 9. Romans 8 says nothing can separate us from the love of God - not even death. How might believing that change the way you face uncertainty, grief, or fear? 10. If our future is ultimately life with God in a renewed creation, what is one practical way you can participate in God's renewing work this week?

Unveiling the Apocalypse: Are We In for a Catastrophic Conclusion?
What if heaven isn’t about where you’re going and who gets in and who gets left out? In this message from Robyn Elliott, we explore Revelation 21-22 and uncover a stunning vision of a God who isn't destroying humanity, but rescuing it - defeating evil, throwing open the gates, and making all things new. This isn't a story about escaping earth; it's a story about heaven invading it. Discussion Questions: 1. When you hear the word "heaven," what images or assumptions immediately come to mind? Where do you think those ideas came from? 2. What do you think is at stake in the difference between a God who destroys creation and a God who redeems it? 3. Revelation describes the gates of the New Jerusalem as never being shut. What does that image communicate about God's character? 4. Robyn’s message argues that God's judgment is directed toward evil rather than people. What do you find compelling - or challenging - about that idea? 5. If heaven is "the realm and rule of God" invading earth, where do you already see signs of that happening today? 6. Why do you think fear-based interpretations of Revelation have remained so popular within parts of the church? 7. Revelation ends with a city whose resources flow outward rather than being hoarded inward. What might that vision teach us about economics, generosity, and community - and what would it look like to embody that way of life now? 8. How does the image of God making "everything new" shape the way you think about people, society, and the future? 9. If the New Jerusalem is both a future hope and a present reality, where do you already see glimpses of it in our world today? 10. The Book of Revelation is less about predicting events and more about revealing what reality looks like when God finally defeats evil. How has that changed the way you’re reading the book as we’ve gone through this series? 11. What questions have surfaced as we’ve gone through this series?
