Use the questions and ideas below to guide your reflection and conversation on this month's topic.

"Faith reflections" discussion questions by Kathryn Zurcher

1. How do you view travel? Is it relaxation? Recreation? Adventure? Opportunity? Or do you think it's a frivolous luxury? Discuss why you think about travel the way you do. Is it because that’s how your parents viewed it? Is it based on your own experiences? What could happen if you thought about travel in a different way? How could that affect your next trip—not just for you, but for those you encounter while traveling, and for those you come home to?

2. What do you hope to learn when you go somewhere new? Who do you talk to and where do you go to get the perspective of those who call the place you are visiting home?

3. What moments from your travels have been the most significant to you? Is there a common theme that makes those moments stand out?

4. What spiritual or faith insights have you gained from your travels?

5. Do you share your travel experiences with others? If so, in what ways? If not, who might benefit from hearing how travel has changed your life and faith? Make plans to have that conversation soon. Travel is contagious!
