ENGAGEMENT

• Do you tend to hide your suffering, performing until you collapse (like a prickly porcupine) or do you tend to spill your suffering on anyone within reach? Why?

• What sticks out to you about Job's friends? What are some experiences you've had where you've found you have felt like you were "with" someone when you were suffering, what are some ways you've felt "under" them, or that they chose to be "over" you by giving advice, fixing, pointing out faults or assuming?

• To sit with someone suffering is to be on holy ground... do you agree? What seems impactful or important to you about this?
