conversation on this month's topic.
"Faith reflections" discussion
questions by Erik Christensen
1. What stories of current events in the world,
the nation, your city or neighborhood evoke your anger? When you think
about these situations, do you feel more hopeful or more hopeless?
2. Think of a situation, global or local, that makes you feel
hopeless. Can you think of anyone working on that issue who is acting as
though there is hope for healing, change, or another positive outcome?
Has that person written or spoken about where he or she finds the
courage to continue working on that cause?
3. Reflecting on your own life, can you recall a time when you
responded to a person or a situation in ways that required courage on
your part? How did you find the courage to speak or to act? What was the
source of your courage?
4. Consider again the current events you named in question #1.
How actively are you engaged in responding to those events—individually or with others? What sources of courage are available to
you right now that could strengthen your response to this issue? How is
God equipping you to be a sign of hope in the face of suffering?
