  3. Have you ever felt sidelined for use in the hand of God? Can you explain?
  4. How have you seen our world become more disconnected and oversexualized?
  5. How do you resist this trend in your own life?
  6. How can the church do a more effective job of mitigating the impact of these things in the body of Christ?
