Chapters (24)

2. Discuss the correlation between James leaving his Heavenly Father behind while, at the same time, he works up the courage to face and repair the relationship with his earthly father. Is it easier to mend an earthly relationship or the spiritual relationship with the Almighty?

________________________________________

3. When James’s father brushes him off in the barn, it brings a moment of clarity to James’s own recent past. Discuss the aspects of finally recognizing when the heart begins to heal. How do you handle those oftentimes difficult epiphany moments?

4. In the truck, James finally recognizes that his family and most of the townsfolk were affected in various ways by the fire and the subsequent loss of lives. Discuss how James can identify the problem outside himself but not his own lack of faith and commitment. How has his loss of faith changed him?

5. Have you ever felt so broken, so helpless and so despairing, that it seemed as if nothing matters? Did you turn to God in those times? Did you receive no as an answer, peace as an answer…or a miracle?

6. When James realizes his family doesn’t trust him, he becomes bitter, but then he realizes that it is he who broke faith with them. Have you ever experienced an epiphany that confirms you were in the wrong? How did you handle it?

7. Have you ever been someone’s knight in shining armor, sacrificed yourself or something else of value in order to save their reputation? If so, what were your secret misgivings, if any? If not, under what circumstance would you be willing to sacrifice for another?

8. Have you ever been or felt responsible for someone else’s actions? How did you handle the responsibility—with charity or begrudgingly, or did you run away completely? When God tells us to watch out for each other, to be our brothers’ keeper, do you think it is fair? Why or why not?
