Discussion Questions

When you find yourself in a place of pain or hardship, what is your first instinct—worship, worry, or withdrawal?

How do you define worship—we often think of music, but what other forms of worship do you practice?  How can it also look like obedience, sacrifice, and trust?

In what ways have you experienced God using your trials to impact others around you?

Who in your life might be watching how you respond to hardship—and drawing conclusions about your faith because of it?

What areas of your life do you need to surrender so that your worship can become a clearer testimony to others?

Live it out

Brainstorm ways to make worship not just a Sunday experience, but a daily lifestyle. Practice worshiping throughout the week!
