Sticky Identity

9/27/2020

 
  • What are the different sources from which we might develop our identity from?
  • Do you agree with the idea that the first year of college is a lot like redoing middle school when it comes to our identity formation? Why or why not? How are these two life stages similar or different?
  • Read Genesis 17:1-6 and Genesis 22:1-18
  • What stood out to you from this passage?
  • What was Abraham’s God-given identity?
  • How hard do you think it was for Abraham to keep trusting God and his promises?
  • How is Abraham’s trust in God an example of “sticky faith?”
  • Sticky Faith tells us that there are a few areas that can cultivate a sticky identity environment: rituals that reinforce identity, capitalizing on hardships, affirmation of character, and modeling faith. How have you experienced these in your own faith development?
  • What was a hardship or “trigger event” (significant struggle that have been a major catalyst for faith growth) in your own identity formation? What kind of “trigger events” might our kids/teenagers experience? How do you address them?
  • How do role models help us form an identity?  Who was and/or is a role model of faith for you?
  • What next steps do you need to take this week to help cultivate a sticky identity with the next generation?
