Lays out the culture we are trying to build here at Ohio State

The Gospel message that God loves us, sin messed up everything, and Jesus came to die for our sin and restore everything should shape our whole lives. We are not called to be one foot “involved in our faith” and one foot pursuing our own desires. We are called to be 2 feet in for Jesus who we love with our whole being. In this talk we hear practicals of the “Day in the Life of a missionary disciple” of what it looks like to live out this life in the everyday.

Reflection Questions:

- What is preventing me from being “2 feet in” for Jesus? What am I straddling?

Reflection Questions:

-Take a look at current relationships--with other women, with men, dating relationships, family relationships-- Where is the Lord inviting you to grow?  How can you take a step in willing their good?  Are you seeking to love them in a way that helps them live in reality; are your words and actions appropriate for that relationship?

-How can I grow in receiving the live that is being offered, especially when it's not how I'd prefer to be loved?

-What's keeping you from taking a risk in loving a sister in Christ?

-How can you honor the Tabor Vision of others that has been entrusted to you?

CHASTITY IS A MATTER OF THE HEART-

“To love is to Will the good of another” CCC 1766, St. Thomas Aquinas 

In its fullness: it's looking outward toward my beloved and seeking what is best for that person, not just what is good for me.” Freedom exists for the sake of love, meaning there are sacrifices we will need to make when we are in love. To live our relationships well we must often make sacrifices, surrendering our own will to serve the good of others.

Reflection Questions:

*Questions you may want to ask considering the objective aspect of love— 

- Am I committed to this other person for who she is or for the enjoyment I receive from the relationship? 

- Does my beloved understand what is truly best for me, and does he have the faith and virtue to help me get there?

- Are we deeply united by a common aim, serving each other, and striving together toward a common good that is higher than each of us? Or are we just living side by side, sharing resources and occasional good times together while we selfishly pursue our own interests and enjoyments in life?

In this episode we are diving into discovering the proper role of emotions in our friendships and relationships

Reflection Questions:

-What does personal prayer/worship mean to me? Why do I want it to be a part of my life?

-Ask the Holy Spirit to highlight areas of your life that stand as obstacles to personal prayer and worship. It could be media, the people we spend our time with, school, work, other commitments, sleep, comfort… Ask Him in trust, and write down His response. 

-Ask yourself, how do I want to grow in prayer? Maybe you’re just starting, or maybe you’ve been praying for a long time; know there’s always more for you. 

-Practice hearing the Father’s voice. Sit in a quiet space, free of distraction, and ask Him what He thinks of you. Write down His response.

-In what ways is Jesus asking me to be more of a gift to others? How does He want personal prayer and worship to take a part in that?
