Journey Group Discussion Questions:
How do you feel when you discover that others are seeking relationships with you simply for their personal benefit, whether it is to make themselves feel good about themselves or profit somehow?

How do you respond to people who care for others, even if they aren’t doing it the way you would? What does it take to work with others even when you don’t agree, and how can it open the door to the gospel?

What things irritate you most in other people? If Esther can work with arrogant Xerxes, how can we surrender these irritants and barriers to God and develop his eternal perspective?
