Killing what’s Killing You - Distractions
Stop focusing on what you’re distracted by, and start focusing on what you’re distracted from.
What’s one idea from the message that stood out to you? Why do you think it grabbed you?
What is easy for you to focus on? What is difficult for you to focus on? Why?
What seems to distract you the most?
Read: John 10:10, Luke 10:38-42, Mark 14:35-36.

How can we focus on God?
