Stronger Hope

September 2020

Discuss Together

  • What are some fears you have picked up over the years? How do you think you picked up on that particular fear?

  • Ryan talked about how we can feed our fears if we’re not careful. Do you think you are feeding any fears right now? How?

  • Read Matthew 8:23-27. Have you ever had a moment in your life where everything was failing and it seemed like God was asleep? Share with the group what happened and if your perspective changed over time.

  • What do you think Jesus would say to us and our fears right now?

  • Ryan said, “Sometimes the best strategy for dealing with our current fears is remembering our old ones.” What have you feared in the past that doesn’t scare you today? What changed?

  • Read Romans 15:13. How is it possible to be full of hope in the middle of great difficulty?

  • How can you choose hope instead of fear this week?
