Power to run on

Isaiah 40:27-31 is the text of Step 5 from this week’s lesson “Take Comfort in God’s Strength”. That’s the same text Eric Liddell Preaches at the Church of Scotland in the movie Chariots of Fire. Rent the movie, and play the clip of Liddell’s reading. Remind members that Liddell refused to run on Sunday and was ridiculed for it. Discuss how Liddell depended on God’s strength.

Ask members to share how they have placed themselves into God’s care and received strength from Him. This story of bikers discovering the power of God is interesting if you want to share it as an alternative.
