Discuss: Don't Be Deceived

Have you ever believed something with total confidence, only to later realize you were completely wrong?

In this reflection on James 1:16, I share a little bit about my efforts to grow a beard—and how God helps us get out of the trap of self-deception.

Let’s discuss…

  1. Why do you think it can be so difficult to recognize self-deception in our own lives?

  2. How can having trusted friends or fellow believers help you recognize and overcome self-deception?

  3. How can we lovingly speak the truth to others without causing harm or resentment?

  4. What other Bible verses offer guidance on living in the truth?
