Week 1 in our series about our identity in Christ!

For Discussion: 

1. What role do outside influences (cultural expectations, social media, peer pressure, ect..) play in shaping your self worth? 
2. What are some practical examples of what you do when you "forget" that you are loved by God?
3. What are a few ways that you could reinforce what God says about your value as opposed to those external influences?
4. How could being confident in God's love for us change our ability to love others? 

For Families

1. Sometimes when we forget God loves us, we pretend and hide from Him. Can you think of a time when you felt like you had to hide something from God or someone else so that they would like you better or live you more? What could you have done instead?
2. When we know we are loved by God, it changes that wya we are able to love other people. Do you think you are good at loving other people? How have you loved other people well this week? How could you love people even better?
