Discussion Questions:

1) In our daily lives, we often encounter situations where we're tempted to prioritize our own interests over our commitments to others or to God. These moments can be small, like choosing to sleep in rather than helping a friend move, or large, like making career decisions that impact our families. How do you navigate the tension between personal desires and faithfulness to your commitments?

2) Our society often celebrates individual achievement and personal success. This can make it challenging to appreciate the value of less visible roles or contributions, both in our workplaces and in our communities. In what ways can we better recognize and honor the diverse contributions of all members in our communities?

3) Leadership is often associated with power, authority, and decision-making. However, there's a growing recognition of the importance of servant leadership, where leaders prioritize the needs of those they lead. What characteristics do you believe are essential for a leader who wants to serve others effectively?

4) In our diverse society, we frequently encounter people with different beliefs, values, and ways of life. This diversity can be both enriching and challenging, particularly when it comes to working together toward common goals. How can we maintain unity of purpose while respecting and valuing our differences?

5) Living a life of faithfulness and sacrificial service often goes against the grain of our culture. It can lead to misunderstanding, criticism, or even personal loss. Yet, many people find deep fulfillment in this way of life. What motivates you to pursue a life of faithfulness and service, even when it's difficult or goes unrecognized?
