+Two Men, Two Outcomes, One Hope
+Romans: Volume 2 | Week of October 6, 2024
+
+## Big Idea
+Jesus restores what Adam destroyed.
+
+## Read: 
+Romans 5:15-21
+
+## Discussion Questions
+1. What insight, principle, or observation from this week’s sermon was the most helpful, eye-
+opening, or troubling? Explain.
+2. What is the main contrast between Adam's trespass and Christ's gift in Romans 5:15?
+3. What does Paul mean when he says that “grace reigns through righteousness” in Romans
+5:21?
+4. How does understanding Adam as a "type" of Christ help us grasp the significance of
+Christ’s work (Romans 5:14, 18-19)?
+
+## Next Steps
+Let grace, not guilt or fear, reign in your life. Consider how you can allow God’s grace to shape
+your attitudes, decisions, and relationships. When faced with temptation or difficulty, remind
+yourself that you are no longer under the reign of sin and death, but under the reign of grace.
+Actively seek to reflect Christ’s righteousness in your daily life, extending grace to others as you
+have received it from God.
+
+## Prayer Focus
+This is Mission Emphasis Month at CrossPointe. This week, focus on the mission at home. We
+often give generously to support global missions, but we must also give to fund the local ministry
+initiatives at CrossPointe. Pray that God will make you generous to your church
