Q1.  Do you have a harder time “saying yes” or “saying no”?  

Share how you arrive at your answer. Are you motivated by guilt or by what you feel like you’re “supposed” to do? Do the opinions of friends and family matter more than the opinion of God? What are the “little yeses” that require discipline in your life?

Q2. Tell us about a time when you said Yes when you should have said No (or visa versa)?

Tell us about the aftermath, the consequences, at what point you realized you made the wrong choice. What did the Lord teach you through the circumstances? How are you stronger and braver now as a result? 

Q3. What are those “little” sins you’re struggling with? Are there areas where you’re hearing that deceptive whisper “God is not enough”?

We know these are sensitive questions and you may not wish to share publicly; but we encourage you to ask them of yourself and quietly wrestle with God to reveal Himself to you through the struggle. If you’re comfortable and feel like it would benefit another, we’d love to hear the hard parts of your story.

Q4.  Share your favorite quote from Chapters 9 & 10.

Aren’t you enjoying reading the highlights from our community? Discovering readers’ favorite quotes is like a Bloom Cliff Notes version of each session.
