Looking Above Episode 50 - Loss and Adversity

It’s a new season of Looking Above and we’re talking about resilience. Brooklyn and Karen introduce the new season in this episode and talk about some of their own experiences with loss and adversity.  We will all face difficulties in life, but hopefully, as we go through the storms, we cling to Jesus and become more like Him.

 

If you’re discussing with a group, here are some questions to guide your discussion:

 

  1. How would you define “resilience”
  2. Do you think most people your age are resilient? Why/why not?
  3. How has our society made us less resilient?
  4. How is resilience different than persistence?
  5. Why do we want an easy life when we know that adversity is what grows us up and makes us stronger?
  6. How do you feel about John 16:33? Does it give you comfort or concern?
  7. How have you faced/dealt with adversity in your life?  Who do you turn to? What emotions do you feel? 
  8. Have you watched someone else go through adversity and cling to Jesus? What did you notice about them during that season? What can you learn from them?
  9. What current situation are you facing in which you need to be more resilient? How can we pray for you?
