- The wounds we receive from our parents send a message. This message is almost always a lie.
When we believe that lie, it drives a channel that confuses who we are, how we communicate and how we operate as men. The effects of these wounds include low self-esteem, a deep longing, deep emotional pain inside and a performance-orientation that makes us “doers” rather than “beings.”
This week on the podcast we are diving back in with our second episode in a series called Southland Men. Our guest this week, Jordan Moody joins in for a conversation about growing up in a broken home and how God can redeem the past and give us a new path to walk, going forward.
DISCUSSION GUIDE
Jordan and Scott mentioned their family to all of us. Share about your family with your group.
Scott helped us understand that “wounds create trauma.” What are things we can do as men to help care for our wounds or our friends' wounds?
Scott also talked about how wounds from family create 2 types of trauma. 1) The absence of good things that we need. 2) The presence of bad things that should have never happened. This trauma has a big impact on those affected. How can we help stop this from happening to future generations?
Read Romans 8:35-37. How can that kind of faith and belief encourage people to be “more than conquerors through Him who loved us?”
Scott brought up that he and Jordan texted about doing this podcast episode. This brought up a lie from the enemy about not deserving to have a seat at the table. Spend time praying against this mindset. How can we encourage men to look past this lie and share our testimonies?
This quote was mentioned multiple times, “You’re not responsible for what happened to you - you’re responsible for what you do with it.” As you take a second to think about that, what does that mean for you in your life?
“Boundaries are like good fences.” What are some good fences that you need to build in your life?
There was a specific callout to dads and how father wounds become inflicted on our kids. Spend a few minutes praying over father wounds in general for men. How has this affected you as either the son or the father? Remember Matthew 19:26 as you discuss.
What else from the podcast spoke to you?
What did God/Holy Spirit speak/prompt/say to you? What’s God asking you to do? What does He want to give you? What does He want you to lay down?
