Bob famously loses his shoes while skydiving solo, and from that story he draws a picture of what it looks like to step out in love without having everything figured out. Let these questions help you think about where God might be calling you to let go.
Discussion Questions
7 questions1.Bob's skydiving story is funny, but the point is serious: he jumped without being fully prepared, and something got lost in the process. What do you think he's trying to say about the nature of love with that image?
2.Goff describes the feeling of freefall — that moment when you're committed and there's no going back. Where in your life have you experienced the 'freefall' of choosing to love someone when it was risky or costly?
3.Bob suggests that we often wait until we feel ready, qualified, or equipped before we step out in love — but that waiting itself is a form of fear. Do you agree? What does 'waiting until you're ready' actually cost?
