Questions

  1. Have you ever been asked to do something you didn’t think was possible?
  2. Why do you think people struggle with not knowing the whole plan? What emotions come to mind for you?
  3. Who do you turn to for wisdom about your journey with God?

Questions

  3. How can you partner with others to be the hands and feet of God’s love and care?

You Can’t Earn Your Identity

Bradon and Jon talk about identity and will challenge you to reflect on where your identity comes from. When we try and create our identity, things will go poorly for us. You can’t earn your identity it is bestowed on you by God.

Understanding that our identity is not earned but a gift bestowed on each of us will cause us to search and discover in scripture and prayer which we are verses through our imagination and our predominate emotion of the day or week.
