DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
Head
- In the sermon, we shared a study on loneliness: 36% serious loneliness—feeling lonely “frequently” or “almost all the time or all the time” in the four weeks prior to the survey. This included 61% of young people aged 18-25 and 51% of mothers with young children.
- How does this resonate with yourself and people you know?
- Read Galatians 6:1-10. What are some of the marks of meaningful relationships illustrated by Paul here?
Heart
- How have (and do) you experienced loneliness?
- What is something you’ve experienced that made a relationship meaningful?
- Do you feel like you have meaningful relationships currently?
- Meaningful relationships are mutual relationships. What is something that you want to do for someone this week to make a relationship more meaningful?
