Chapter 19: Serving with Hardworking Hands

1.  How do you reconcile your vocational ideals with reality?

2.  Which "mundane realities" pose a stumbling block for you?  How do you overcome them?

3.  When have you been pushed past your perceived capabilities?  What did you gain from the experience?

4.  How does your family serve others?

Action Point-
Try to think of some people you meet everyday-in your church, your neighborhood, etc.-who could use some love and care.  Come up with a plan to minister to those people's needs together.  (Your children's ideas may surprise and challenge you!)
