Flip Side Session FIVE: April 1, 2020

Welcome back friends! We are so happy you are here! Grab your bible and join us for today’s session about the FLIP SIDE!

Quick reminder of how this works.

We will post a new video and discussion board each day (MWF for two weeks). Watch the video of Becky discussing the current topic. Then, read the questions and post your point of view in the comment box below. Feel free to read the other’s comments and reply! The more conversation we can get going, the better this small group will be.

In difficult situations, it's easy to be overwhelmed as we focus on all the things going wrong.

If we do that, it's natural to spiral into despair. However, if you look for it, there is almost always something that you can find to be grateful for even in the midst of life's storms. Your attitude of thankfulness can shape your ability to handle all of the hard times. It can be helpful to consciously evaluate yourself in this area. This might be a weekly practice, daily practice, or even an hourly practice sometimes." Are you spending the majority of your time complaining about what's happening in your life right now? Or are you stopping each day and thanking God for the ways that you are truly blessed?"What are you grateful for today?

As you work through the FLIP SIDE study, pencil in your answers on your paper. Then, share your answers in the comment section below!
