Discussion questions for Session 2 Choosing to believe the truth

Pause for thought or breakout room 1

1. If you want to know what someone really believes, don't listen to what they say, but look at what they actually do. Spend some time discussing this thought.
   
   
2. God asks us to believe what the Bible says is true, even when it might not feel true. Share about a time when you chose to override your feelings and acted by faith instead.
   
   
3. It takes more faith to believe that there is no God than to believe in God. What do you think about this statement?

Reflection

1. In your group, read the Twenty Cans of Success. Pause after each one to allow people to share why that truth is particularly meaningful to them.
   
   
2. Which truth is most significant to you? Write it down and personalize it. For example: "What should I, [my name], say I can't when the Bible says I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me? (Philippians 4:13)". Take time to digest and enjoy this truth, asking God to help you receive it in your spirit.
