The Strength To Stand | Unbreakable Week 1

Think back to a time when you dreamt about your future, maybe a childhood dream job or the first car you’d buy. Share one of those memories, and why you wanted that.

Finding strength to stand against the wind begins with finding the true source of strength: a relationship with God. Discuss the differences between religion vs. a relationship with God and how it impacts your faith on a daily basis.

There are three ways we can hear God more clearly, helping us to experience more breakthrough. 1) Turn off the noise (distractions that keep you from knowing God) 2) Take off your shoes (moments to pause and sit in what God may be doing or saying) 3) Take off on an adventure (confronting your struggles). Which of these areas have given you strength and which are the ones that cause the most resistance for you?

Sometimes in life we may feel we don't measure up, or that the wind is always against our sails. Take three minutes and review the three areas in question #3. Share with the group one step you will take this week in finding the x-factor of tapping into God’s power and strength.

Now let’s close our time together in prayer. Use this one if you want, “God, thank you for using normal people like us, and for wanting a relationship with us. We need more of you and we need less of the noise distracting us from you. God we ask that you show us the way to turn off the noise so we can receive more of your strength. Amen.”
