These things I have spoken to you, so that in me, you may have peace, in the world, you have tribulation, but take courage, I have overcome the world.
John 16:33

- Have you felt controlled by some people through their tactics of using anger or guilt against you that keep you from well-being or have you been the one with a controlling spirit on others? Discuss what kind of fear or symptoms including fear of failure, no sense of belonging or insecurity have kept you out of well-being. (Rom 8:15; John 2:24)
- Why is it difficult for some people to trust others and does regaining trust and forgiveness always come together? Explain the differences between a servant and a son, and how are they motivated differently? How can we overcome hindrances for our well-being? (Rom 8:15)
