Reflect
Discuss the following questions as a group:
- What was the man’s health dream?
- How long had he had this dream?
- How did he think it would be fulfilled?
- Did his way work? Why or why not?
- Why did Jesus ask His question in verse 6?
- What did Jesus mean by the word “whole?”
Retell
- Share a story about a time when you tried something to improve your health and the outcome was not what you expected.
- Share a story about a time you motivated someone else to pursue their health dream.
- Share a story about a moment when you lost your desire for something you had wanted for a long time.
React
Choose a symbol to remind you of this health dream and expose yourself to the symbol everyday. This could be a vision board, a picture of someone who inspires you, a favorite Bible text, an inspirational song, an inspiring phrase, a place, etc.
- What would you say if Jesus asked you the question in verse 6? Why?
- What would you do today if you knew you couldn’t fail?
- With whom would you be most excited to share what you’ve learned today, and why?
- Write a letter to yourself telling yourself about changes you can make today that will positively impact your life.
