-What's your storm story? Have you ever fought hard, worked, tried everything else and gotten worn out, only to ask God for help and see Him take care of it?
-The storms in our lives are designed to teach us things, to help us move forward, to prepare us for what's next in life. What did your storm story teach you?
-God accomplished many things in Scripture. Healing people from illnesses, raising people from death, providing for His people, fighting battles that were impossible to win, making a way when everything looked hopeless. Has anything changed? Has God changed? Has Jesus changed? Then is it feasible to believe that the same things that were accomplished in the Bible can still be done today? So why don't we believe? What's wrong with our faith? Why don't we see these same miracles and events in our lives today?
-Have you ever had a "do you not care" moment with God? Did He seem distant, uncaring, seemingly unphased by your life's circumstances? What did you learn from that? How did God answer your "do you not care" question?
-"Why are you so scared?" If we all believe that God hasn't changed and that He is in control, then why do we react the way that we do? (Negative reactions are ultimately a result of forgetting who God is. Sometimes we forget what He has done in our lives in the past, we forget the promises He made us in Scripture, we forget what He's capable of doing.)
-How does "knowing who He is" change our faith? If knowing who Jesus is makes such a big difference in our lives and our faith, then what do our next steps need to be? (telling others who he is by sharing your Jesus story, reminding ourselves daily what He has done by spending time in the Word, praying daily to hear from God and have our faith recharged).
