DISCUSSION
Monthly Virtue: Grit—Refusing to give up when life gets hard
Bible Story: Big Picture (Joseph Forgives His Brothers) • Genesis 41–45
Bottom Line: Hold on because there’s a bigger story.
Basic Truth: I am loved by God no matter what so I can trust God to guide me.
Memory Verse: Let us not become tired of doing good. At the right time we will gather a crop if we don’t give up. Galatians 6:9 (NIrV)
Ask the following questions and lead the group to discuss:
- When has something turned out better than you expected?
- How does it make you feel to know that God is writing a bigger story in your life, just like God did for Joseph?
- Even though we know there’s a bigger story, why is it so hard to believe that sometimes?
