Identity | Find Your Way Home Week 1 | Anywhere Service
What origin story (from a movie, TV, or book) do you identify with the most? What about it do you connect with?
What stood out to you most from the message?
What gives you the most meaning and purpose when you get up each morning?
Read Genesis 1:26-27. What emotions come to mind when you think about being created in God’s image? Is it intimidating, honoring, too hard to believe, or make you more curious? Share anything that comes to mind.
Brainstorm characteristics, qualities and skills you think you have that reflect God’s image (i.e. you like to create, bring things from chaos to order, show love when it’s hard, etc.) Then share where you see those traits most on display in your life, or where you’d like to see them more.
What’s one thing you could do this week to live more fully how God created you?
After each person shares, bless them in their identity as an image-bearer. Pray something like, “God, thank you for making (person’s name) to be (something they shared). May they walk more confidently and completely in who you made them to be this week.”
Who am I? Many of us spend our whole lives wrestling with that question of identity. To make it worse, every voice in our world is relentlessly screaming an opinion at us. So how do we answer it? We have to go back to the beginning—to our origin. Join us today as Brian talks about where we came from, and what that means for where we’re headed.
