Four months later, Jake DeShazer bombs Nagoya, gets captured, and spends forty months as a prisoner, thirty-four of them in solitary. After the war, DeShazer goes back to Japan as a missionary, and his story ends up in Fuchida's hand at a train station in Tokyo.\nThat's how we open week eight. This weekend Larry Osborne took us to the Last Supper in Matthew 26:17–35, \"A Table of Traitors.\" Jesus is the hero of this story, and we're the traitors at the table. All he asks is that we give what we've received.\nAlso this week: a walk through every question in the guide, so you can follow along even if you haven't opened it. Why Jesus kept the address of this dinner a secret. Two things you might hear in group: \"So I'm supposed to forgive them and act like nothing happened?\" and \"If my brother keeps asking me for money, love means I keep paying?\" And a word for you, if someone in your group has let you down.\nIn this episode\n00:00 Enemies Forgiven\n00:49 Mission to Nagoya\n02:13 Last Supper Setup\n03:14 Warmup Questions\n04:36 Know It Discussion\n06:16 Share It Forgiveness\n07:17 Live It Action Steps\n08:18 Rabbit Hole Secrecy\n09:16 Forgiveness Boundaries\n10:10 Leader Encouragement\n10:35 Wrap Up and Stories\nThings your group can do\nThanksgiving Blessings: Fill a table this Thanksgiving.
