What Does it Mean to Be Rejected?

Gena St David reflects on where we might find comfort in the Christ story when we suffer rejection for living what God invites us into [Mark 8:31-37].

Reflection

• Which relationships help us endure rejection?
• Where might the Spirit be inviting us to risk rejection and wage “good conflict”?
• How might the Christ story comfort us when we suffer rejection?

Practice

• Name your five people – who helps us endure rejection?
• Name your loving reason – why is rejection sometimes worth it?
• Name your hope – what about the Christ story comforts us when we suffer rejection?
