Will Briggs is the Lead Care Pastor at Southland. In this episode Will and Scott discuss what really makes a man and the importance of being comfortable in your own skin.
Group Questions:
- What activities, hobbies, or interests do you associate with being “manly?” Who comes to mind when you think of “manly" men?
- What is the essence of true, biblical manhood? What kind of man was Jesus (Check out Micah 6:8, Ephesians 5:25, and Revelation 1:12-18)?
- Will mentioned the balance between toughness and tenderness. Who do you know that embodies these characteristics well in their personal and professional life?
- Who has God made you to be - uniquely and creatively? Why do you do what you do? How does comparing our lives to others distract us from living out our God-given purpose?
- What does it mean to be wounded? How has woundedness impacted you and those in your life?
- Read Proverbs 27:17. Will said, “We’re an average of the 5 people we spend the most time with.” What are you becoming like as a result of the people you spend time with?
- Can you identify an area of woundedness that you’d be willing to share with the group? Stop now to pray for Jesus’ healing and restoration for men at Southland.
