INTEGRATING FAITH AND SOCIAL LIFE

  1. How does my faith help me in relating to people I don’t really get along with?
  2. What negative and positive pressures do I experience from my peers? How does my faith help me in making choices when these pressures happen?
  3. What does being a disciple of Jesus Christ have to say about how I reach out to a fellow student who doesn’t feel very good about him/herself? Even if it is a student who is not very popular?
  4. What does the Eighth Commandment and Luther’s explanation have to say about the way I talk with my friends about someone not present?
  5. As a person created by and loved by God, in what ways do I feel in my life the effects of the use of drugs, alcohol and smoking (either kind) by myself or by others? Discuss the realities of being tempted regarding these issues, and the part my faith plays then.
  6. What does my faith have to say to me about how I use my leisure time? Reflect on books, movies, TV programs, and internet sites you choose. Reflect on time spent on Facebook, YouTube, Snap Chat, Twitter, etc. and the benefits, issues and hazards of such communication on your part, and of others.
