Why? • How often do you use the computer? • How long do you spend on the internet? Chatting online?

  6. Discussion • What happened to the carnation? What about the other carnation? • How long did it take? • Why did it happen? • What do you think the white represents and the food dye represents in our spiritual lives? • Imagine you are the flower, how long do you it will take for you to notice your change? • What do you think you would do to stop further discoloring? • How do you think this relates to managing our media habits? (lead-in to life applications)

  7. Life Application Questions • Were there Bible characters that struggled with their choices? • What are some influences in yourself you’ve noticed?--from some of the things you’ve watched, listened to, played, or spent too much time in? • What are some methods to be conscience of how our habits influence us—especially in the moment so we can steer clear? • Why is it important to strive for purity? • Choose one area you think you need to manage better. What are specific things you can do you help yourself non lose self-control?
