Session Outline:
A. Why is Ordinary, Daily Faithfulness So Hard?
B. Think Like a Farmer (James 5:7-9)
C. What's the Deal with Spiritual Dry Spells?
D. Combatting Apathy by Looking to Future Glory
Discussion Questions:
1. Why does it sometimes feel easier to be obedient in the big things rather than the daily, small acts of faithfulness?
2. How does our culture prime us towards impatience when it comes to spiritual growth? What are some passages that encourage us to take a long view of faithfulness?
3. Review James 5:7-11. How does James help us think about patience and growth when it comes to spiritual dry spells? How can you "flood the fields" of your heart when you're experiencing spiritual apathy?
4. What does it mean to "look at Jesus" and how does that influence those who are watching us walk with him?
