CONVERSATION

  • When you were a kid, did you have a security blanket or comfort toy? Tell us about it!
  • What are some reasons a person’s life might start to feel unpredictable or unstable? Can you relate to any of those reasons?
  • Tell us about a time or place you felt really safe. Who or what made you feel that way?
  • What would you say are some of your “firm foundations” that support you in difficult times?
  • Retell me Jesus’ parable as though I’ve never heard it before. Then explain it to me!
  • Why would someone turn to God’s words in times of trouble?
  • Read Matthew 4:4. Just like eating, sleeping, or checking our phones, what are some ways we could make God’s words a more regular part of our days?
  • Have God’s words ever brought you comfort during an uncertain time? If so, tell us about it. If not, tell us about a time you needed God’s words to comfort you.
  • Talk about a time you let God’s words guide or direct you. How do you think following God’s words kept you safe from harm?
  • This week, what’s one way you’re going to build more of your life on the foundation of God’s words?
