    Read and respond to the following reflection questions:

    1. Have you ever thought about these seven letters as a collection before? What do you think about their intentional ordering? In your own reading and study, have you ever read them with Acts?  
    2. In your church experience, have these letters been ignored? If yes, how can we include them more in our life and worship together? If no, what role have they played in your corporate life and worship?

    1. Have you ever thought about these seven letters as a collection before? What do you think about their intentional ordering? In your own reading and study, have you ever read them with Acts? ( They are group by author, audience and length. Paul’s letters are ordered beginning with his general letters to the churches in order from longest to shortest)
    2. In your church experience, have these letters been ignored? If yes, how can we include them more in our life and worship together? If no, what role have they played in your corporate life and worship? ( This is a didactic letter and is used a lot in worship.)
