Trauma to Triumph | Part 1
PTSD in Every Man
Trauma to triumph by way of a wounded Healer.
GROUP DISCUSSION:
1. In this first episode, Jeff, Mike and Nathan discuss some of the causes and symptoms of PTSD. Have you personally experienced any of these? What about someone you know?
2. Mike talks about the suppression of emotion that PTSD can cause, allowing the “highs” and “lows” of life to be dulled. Have you seen this take place in your life?
3. Mike explains that PTSD doesn’t always have to be triggered by some extreme experience. It can be little experiences that build up to the suppression of emotion - which can lead men to retreat from the joys of life. In hearing this, have you noticed any suppression in your life? What could be causing you to draw back?
GROUP PRAYER:
Pray that we would be men who learn what it means to live a triumphant life. Jesus tells us in John 16:33, “In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” Pray that you would be aware of the causes and symptoms of PTSD and allow Jesus to come in and bring joy back to your life. Amen and a thousand more amens.
