How might you respond if someone in your group says the following during confession:
Every couple of weeks, my girlfriend and I have sex when we're hanging out at my apartment. I want to stop, and we do good for a while, but then we always fall back into it.
When I come home from working all day, the house is a wreck and it seems like none of the stuff around the house has been done. I know I shouldn't be angry and prideful, but I work too hard to have to come home and do all of this when she's been home all day.
I'm frustrated with God. I feel like every time I get in a good spot in life, he messes everything up. Job, family, money - it's never stable.
I’ve been smoking weed since I was in high school. I know it’s technically illegal, but it’s the only way I can relax. I guess I should stop, but I’m honestly not really sure I want to. It doesn’t hurt anyone.
When you group next has a confession and repentance night be sure to lead one of the narrating sections (explaining why we can confess, how we approach it, reminding your group of the gospel, etc.).
