> 2. When was the last time you went to a funeral? How did you feel? What do you remember from it?

> 3. Has what Solomon shared about listening to the wise (not fools) made you question the wisdom those you’ve sought advice from in the past?

> 4. What are you lamenting? Is there anyone who has joined you in that lament? Whom might you invite in?

> 5. Say a prayer of faith and repentance inviting Jesus to take what is crooked in you, your sin.
