In what ways do we see God's wrath being revealed in the world today, and how does +this align with the depiction of God’s wrath in Romans 1:18? +2. Romans 1:18 states that God’s wrath comes from heaven against all godlessness and +wickedness of people who suppress the truth. How can we understand and explain the +justification of God's wrath in a contemporary context where the idea of divine wrath +might be challenging or misunderstood? +3. How does Paul establish that God's wrath is not arbitrary but is directed specifically at +human actions that involve suppressing the truth? Discuss examples of how truth is +suppressed in society today and relate this to the concept of divine retribution. +4. Considering the nature of God's wrath as revealed, justified, and rightly directed, how +should this influence the behavior and beliefs of Christians today? How can believers +reconcile the concept of a loving God with the reality of God's wrath? + +## Next Steps +How often do you think of God as a wrathful God? This week, consider the implications of God’s +wrath and thank Him that He has forgiven you and adopted you into His family. + +## Prayer Focus +VBS is four weeks away! Over the next few weeks, we’ll pray for specific aspects of VBS. This week, +pray for our VBS director, Bryn Miller, as she finalizes plans for the Great Jungle Journey. \ No newline at end of file
