Sermon Discussion Questions:

1. Have you ever used a good excuse to avoid a hard task?

2. Which do you find has the most influence in your decisions: expectation, obligations or the desire for approval?

3. Can you think of an experience in your life where you knew God was calling you to a step of faith that you were afraid to take? What happened?

4. Is there a step right now that you believe Jesus is asking you to take? What is standing in your way?
