Session One | Small Group Questions
In your groups:
1. Introduce yourselves: what’s your season like?
2. Pick someone to pray for your group: for honest conversations, for the Holy Spirit to speak, for no shame, and for healing and hope to come.
3. Read Matthew 11:28-30 and as a group, ask God for fresh eyes. How does this passage make you feel? Does it feel real in your life? Are there seasons where you have experienced the light and free life?
4. Grab your copy of Tired of Being Tired, take a pen, and take the quiz on pages 59-61.
5. Share what you found in the quiz, does this track with how you’ve been feeling?
6. Pray over the person to your right, speak life over her, and ask God for more wisdom, insight, and healing as the retreat unfolds.
Session Two | Small Group Questions
In your groups:
1. How does the phrase “it will get worse if it doesn’t get better” strike you? What’s at stake if you keep going the way you are?
2. Which of the five lies shared today hits the closest to home for each of you? Go around and just share, don’t give advice - just listen.
3. Go around and individually speak truth over yourselves, what do you believe is the truth God has given you to demolish these lies and any strongholds in your life?
4. If there’s time, pray for the woman to your left.
Session Three | Reflection Questions
On your own:
1. When was the last time you talked to God about your body?
2. In what spaces do you tend to lose your own regulation?
3. What tactics and rhythms listed feel like they might be most helpful for you?
4. Spend sometime in silence, listen to God, and see what He wants to tell you about your body, your rest, your desire to live fully awake?
