Lent Group - Finding A Voice 3

31/3/2017

0 Comments

 
Last week we thought about struggles and successes; times and skills which we have found hard to acquire and what has helped or discouraged us. We acknowledged the need for perseverance but saw in the film how Bertie – and ourselves – need something more. Bertie worked hard at the “technical tools” that he needed to overcome his stammer but Lionel always knew it needed more. It came after the death of his father King George V. When Bertie visited Lionel he unleashed all his childhood pain and it was a breakthrough moment for Bertie.
We then reflected on the bible message that God will work with and indeed through our weaknesses and how being vulnerable and exposed makes us feel. At the end of the session we silently considered the pain that often lies deep and long buried inside ourselves.
