Not all rejection is accidental or indifferent — some of it is targeted, cruel, and intentional. Lysa addresses what it looks like to respond as a follower of Jesus when the rejection turns vicious.
Discussion Questions
7 questions1.Lysa makes a distinction between the ordinary sting of being left out and the specific pain of rejection that is calculated and cruel — where someone is actively working against you. Have you experienced that second kind? How was it different from ordinary rejection?
2.She is honest about her own experience of being targeted and maligned, and the rage and grief that came with it. What is the emotional and spiritual difference between responding to rejection and responding to persecution? Does the Bible treat them differently?
3.Romans 12 commands us not to repay evil for evil — but Lysa is clear this does not mean being passive, pretending the wound does not exist, or having no boundaries. What is the difference between overcoming evil with good and enabling evil by not protecting yourself?
