Review this week's message.

Key Thought:

What kind of legacy are you building with the words you speak and the faith you live out?



Key Quote

“Practice does not make perfect, practice makes permanent.” - Pastor Jonathan Brozozog



Start talking. Find a conversation starter for your group.
  • What was your dream job as a kid?
  • What’s a fashion trend you secretly miss?
  • Mountains or beach?


Start thinking. Ask a thoughtful question.
  • What are some ways we’ve unknowingly outsourced parenting (or influence), and what does reclaiming that responsibility look like?
  • What are some cultural messages being spoken over kids today, and how can your words be a counter to that?
  • What does it look like to “get wisdom and understanding” in everyday decisions—not just big moments?


Start sharing. Choose questions that create openness.
  • "You heal your family with your words." — What kinds of words have you been speaking over your children, friends, or yourself lately? Are they healing or harming?
  • Can you remember a word spoken over you as a child (positive or negative) that still impacts you today? How can that memory shape the way you speak now?


Start doing. Commit to a step and live it out this week.
  • What’s one practical way you can take back spiritual authority in your home this week?
    • Speak one word over your kids, friends, or yourself this week.

Scriptures

Get wisdom! Get understanding! Do not forget, nor turn away from the words of my mouth.  Proverbs 4:5

 

Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.  Proverbs 22:6

 

Then one of the crowd answered and said, "Teacher, I brought you my son, who has a mute spirit. And wherever it seizes him, it throws him down; he foams at the mouth, gnashes his teeth, and becomes rigid. So I spoke to your disciples, that they should cast it out, but they could not.”  Mark 9:17-18

 

He answered him and said, “O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him to me.” Then they brought him to Him. And when he saw Him, immediately the spirit convulsed him, and he fell on the ground and wallowed, foaming at the mouth.  Mark 9:19-20

 

So He asked his father, “How long has this been happening to him?” And he said, “From childhood. And often he has thrown him both into the fire and into the water to destroy him. But if you can do anything, have compassion on us and help us.”  Mark 9:21-22

 

Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”  Mark 9:23
