Week+4+Discussion

1) When Aunt Beast is helping Meg recover she tells Meg "You must be as an infant again." How did Meg need to be like an infant?

2) Before she returns to Camazotz, Mrs. Who gives Meg a passage of scripture: [|1 Corinthians 1:25-28]. How does this passage relate to Charles Wallace's rescue from the power of IT? 3) Read [|2 Corinthians 12:7-10]. All of us have weak places in our lives. In what ways can your weaknesses allow the power of God to show?

4) In her Newbery Medal acceptance speech for __A Wrinkle in Time__, Madeleine L'Engle said "There are forces working in the world as never before in the history of mankind for standardization, for the regimentation of us all, or what I like to call making muffins of us, muffins like every other in the muffin tin."

What forces do you see at work in the world attempting to make us all into "muffins like every other in the muffin tin"? Do you think this is a good thing or a bad thing? What do you think can be done about it?

5) Do you believe there is such a thing as evil? Is evil limited to specific actions, or can a person also be considered evil? Give some examples of people or things you would consider evil. Read [|Ephesians 6:12]. How does this passage relate to your concept of evil in the world?
