Beauty?
Do you place a higher value on aesthetics and beauty or functionality and frugality? How do you make decisions between beautiful/expensive and not so beautiful/inexpensive? Where do you draw the line?
Freedom?
Does desiring and pursuing freedom above all else really bring freedom? Can't a constant resistance to authority become a burdensome slavery?
Struggle?
How does one struggle on behalf of others in prayer (Colossians 4:12-13)? What does this look like? How often could this be said of you?
Cobwebs?
Why is it that eleven months out of the year we go to great lengths to get rid of cobwebs and then for one month we put our efforts into hanging them up as decorations? How does this make sense?
Hurry?
What percentage of the time is it actually beneficial to "hurry" people along (I especially have kids in mind)? Does it normally have a positive effect on the people you are hurrying? How about on yourself?
Weather?
How often do you make it through a day without hearing someone complain about the weather? Doesn't this seem ridiculous when a hundred years ago hvac as we know it was non-existent?
Who Are You?
Christians, do you spend as much time each morning thinking about how God sees you in Christ as you do thinking about how the world will see you when you go out today? Are you more aware of who you are in Christ or who you are in the mirror?
Defining?
What is the difference between a taco and a burrito? What elements have to be present to make an ice cream sundae? Is iceberg lettuce with some watery ranch dressing really a salad?
Thriving?
What makes a quality marriage? What qualities are common to every good marriage? What qualities are uniquely needed to make your marriage healthy? Is your marriage thriving? What would your spouse say?
Shadows?
What would the world be like without shadows? What is the function of shadows on a practical level? On an aesthetic level?
Motivation?
How many motivations influence any single action you take? How many layers of desires are driving what you do? Is it ever just one?
Thank You?
For you dog crazy dog owners, when someone says, "your dog is adorable!" what is the appropriate response? Do you say "thank you"? If so, why?
Room Temperature?
Is it just me, or is the effectiveness of the term "room temperature" overrated? When we say something is "room temperature," what are we really saying? What "room"? Where is the said "room" (is it in Antarctica or Death Valley?)? Does said "room" have HVAC? Is there a term that we could replace it with that would be less relative?
Happy?
On any given day what is the minimum that must take place for you to be happy? On any given day what is the minimum it takes to put you in a bad mood?
Mess?
How do you explain to a child the difference between rubbing a mess into the floor and wiping it up? What is the difference?
