   • What did you do last week to increase your faith and connection with God?
2. Connecting Relationally (Optional)

3. Discussion Questions:  Prayerfully ask the Holy Spirit to guide you in determining which of the discussion questions you will ask your group members from Is My Story Part of a Bigger Story?
4. Incorporate why chasing progress is so important on the journey to homeownership, along with strengthening your relationship with God
5. Note:  You may want to think about asking a particular question to a particular person (or persons) in your group based on what you know of their story or what God is doing in their lives.  Also, remember to include and draw in members of the group who are less talkative than others.
