Week Twenty-Four - Whirlwind

This week our focus will be on the last and twenty-fourth film in Rob Bell's Nooma series - "Whirlwind."  Traci will lead us in this casual discussion.

What do we do when there aren't nice, neat answers?

A lot of us have gone through times in our lives that are difficult.Some have been small and hard to understand and some have been big andoverwhelming. During these times we want answers, don't we? We want to knowwhy. Why do we have to suffer? Why do bad things happen to good people? We justwant someone to make sense of it all. But we don't always get the answers, dowe? Sometimes we are left wondering. And those can be some of the mostdifficult times. Maybe there are times we need to be released from having tohave all the answers. And maybe it's when we're released that we are able tosee there may be more going on here than we realize.

Week Twenty-Three - Corner

 

Next week our focus will be on the twenty-third film in Rob Bell's Nooma series - "Corner."  Amy will lead us in this casual discussion.

Why do we often feel empty even when we get what we want?

Why is it that often when we get what we want, we still feel empty? We work so hard to succeed, but our lives just end up becoming more about us. Can success turn on us? Can we get caught up in a smaller world where our lives are all about the things that we want? Or is there another way to live? Where life is about more than just us. Where we see people in need and we do something about it. Where our world is expanding because we are sharing our success. And maybe in attempting to save someone else from their suffering, we find out that we are actually the ones being saved.
