REFLECTION QUESTIONS:
1. What is your favorite dish at the Thanksgiving meal?
2. How was anxiety understood or discussed in your family or religious community growing up?
3. What stayed with you from the sermon- either an encouragement or something you wrestle with?
4. Process together how Mark framed the use of Numbers 21:4-9. Why might looking at the object of our pain bring about healing?
5. Read 2 Corinthians 4:7-12, 16-18. Where do you find hope in these words?
6. Mark talked about gratitude as a practice; not merely an emotion. How could you practice gratitude in your life and what difference could it make?
