Discussion Questions
As you listen to the audio, keep these questions in mind.
- Unexpected situations can easily bring out the worst in us. Do I often find myself reacting with anger and frustration, or have I developed patience and prudence to head off knee-jerk reactions or hurtful comments?
- We find no defensive witness from Mary in Scripture, trying to explain to Joseph what transpired or justify her pregnant state. How could I better follow her example?
- On what occasions have you harnessed anger for good? What are the circumstances that trigger unhealthy anger?
- What betrayals have I experienced in my life? Have I forgiven and moved forward, or am I still stuck in unforgiveness? What would it take to break free and forgive?
