Do you feel a tension in your life between home and mission? Today, Carol Arnold joins Karen Hodge to talk about how living on mission can redefine what it means to “go” and give your life an eternal purpose.

Discussion Questions:

  • In Psalm 1:3, what does it mean to bear fruit in season? Are you in a fruitful season?
  • What does Carol say “go” means?
  • Carol describes a battle we all experience in life. How do you see whatever situation you are facing as a spiritual battle?
  • How important is hospitality in living on mission?
  • How does Carol say her grief was different?
  • Read Phil. 1, and answer the question, what are you living for?
