Group
Have 2-3 members share takeaways from their GO last week.
- Do you think God wants you to be happy? Why or why not?
- What’s the difference between joy and happiness? If one preferable over the other?
- Do you ever feel guilt for being happy? Why or why not?
- Pastor and theologian John Piper said, “You can’t stop wanting to be happy. God wired you to be happy. That’s not a sinful thing – that’s a good thing.” Do you agree with that comment?
- When you search for happiness, where do you try to find it?
- Consider your answer to the previous question: if you didn’t respond that you search for happiness in God, why not?
- Is it possible to truly be happy given all the sin and brokenness that exists in the world? Why or why not?
- Would you categorize happiness more as an emotion or a mindset?
