Gena St David reflects on where we might find comfort in the Christ story when we suffer rejection for living what God invites us into [Mark 8:31-37].

Reflection

• Which relationships help us endure rejection?
• Where might the Spirit be inviting us to risk rejection and wage “good conflict”?
• How might the Christ story comfort us when we suffer rejection?

Practice

• Name your five people – who helps us endure rejection?
• Name your loving reason – why is rejection sometimes worth it?
• Name your hope – what about the Christ story comforts us when we suffer rejection?
