2.Contrary to the modern idea, humans are not fully autonomous, all people are being formed by something. What are some of the voices and influences that shape us today? Which of these point us toward God and away from Him?
3.What are some practical ways we can intentionally “write God’s Word on our hands, heads, doorposts, and gates” to anchor ourselves in God’s story?
