2nd Sunday in Lent

Discussion Questions for Reading 1 (Genesis 15:5-12, 17-18): Faith and trust go together. We believe that our God is a God of love. We can trust God with our lives. Faith means complete trust in God. What does this mean to you?  Pray today: Lord, when you call us to journey into new territories, may we, like Abram, put our faith and trust in you.  What new territories is God asking you to explore?  In every way, each new day is "new territory." How will you trust God today?
Discussion Questions for Reading 2 (Philipians 3:17-4:1):  A citizen is not a visitor, a tourist, or a guest. A citizen is someone who belongs to a particular country. Sometimes citizens of a country go to other countries to live or work. Sometimes they become citizens of their new country. Sometimes they remain citizens of their original country. Their citizenship means too much to them to change. What does being a citizen of heaven mean to you?  What are your responsibilities and privileges as a citizen of this country? 
What are your responsibilities and privileges as a citizen of heaven? 
Discussion Questions for Gospel (Luke 9:28b-36):  The disciples are awed when the voice of God confirms Jesus' identity: "This is my Son, my Chosen One." How will you honor Jesus as the Chosen One of God during Lent?  Three traditional ways are: daily prayer, fasting, and sharing with the poor (almsgiving). How can you include these three Lenten practices into your daily life?
