Reflection questions:

What does it mean to be “justified by faith”? How does this lead to peace with God?

How does the peace that comes from being justified with God differ from worldly concepts of peace?

How can this peace with God affect the way you handle conflict or adversity in your relationships?

How do you understand the concept of “standing in grace”? In what practical ways can you rest in God’s grace rather than relying on your own strength?

What are some specific situations where you’ve experienced God’s grace holding you up when you felt weak or defeated?

How does hope “not put us to shame” or “disappoint” according to this verse? Why is this hope different from other types of hope we might experience?

What role does the Holy Spirit play in pouring God’s love into our hearts, and how does this deepen our hope?

In what ways does God’s love, poured out by the Holy Spirit, give you confidence when life feels uncertain?

How does the truth of Romans 5:1-5 encourage you to maintain hope in the face of long-term trials or unanswered prayers?
