Discussion Questions

1. Where in your life do you find yourself mostly trying harder instead of building healthy spiritual habits? What would “training” look like for you in that area? 

2. Which fruit of the Spirit (love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, or self- control) feels strongest in your life right now? Which one feels weakest? Why do you think that is? 

3. When have difficult seasons or stress revealed something unhealthy in your heart? What did you learn from it? 

4. The message talked about “up moments,” “down moments,” and “ordinary moments.” Which of those seasons are you currently in? How can spiritual training help you navigate that season faithfully? 

5. What are some things competing for your attention right now? What practical changes could help you prioritize God more consistently? 

6. Which spiritual practice mentioned in the message stood out to you most (Bible reading, prayer, journaling, fasting, generosity, quiet time, etc.)? What’s one realistic step you could take this week to build a more consistent training plan? 

7. When people look at your life years from now, what kind of spiritual legacy do you hope they remember? What habits today will help build that legacy?
