by Robin Sharma
Uninvited Study Guide by Lysa TerKeurst is a companion to the book that provides practical exercises, discussion questions, and biblical insights to help readers overcome feelings of rejection and embrace their true identity in Christ.
In Uninvited Study Guide by Lysa TerKeurst, the journey begins with the pain of rejection. Here, the author takes us through her personal experience of rejection and how it led her to believe lies about herself. She explains how these lies can affect our relationships and our faith. TerKeurst encourages us to identify the negative thoughts we have about ourselves as a result of rejection and to replace them with God's truth.
She emphasizes the importance of understanding that rejection isn't about us, but about the person rejecting us. She shares that God's love for us is unwavering, regardless of how others treat us. The study guide includes personal reflection questions and group discussion prompts to help us process these ideas and apply them to our lives.
In the next part of the study guide, TerKeurst delves deeper into understanding God's love. She explains that God's love is not based on our performance or the opinions of others. Instead, it's a constant, unwavering love. She encourages us to find our worth in God's love and not in the approval of other people.
The study guide includes practical exercises to help us internalize this truth, such as keeping a journal of God's love notes or creating a visual reminder of His love. TerKeurst also discusses the importance of forgiveness in the context of rejection, explaining that forgiving those who have hurt us is an essential part of healing and moving forward.
As we move forward in the study guide, TerKeurst helps us explore how to overcome the pain of rejection. She shares practical steps to take when we face rejection, such as allowing ourselves to grieve, seeking God's perspective, and choosing to trust God's plan. She also discusses the power of our thoughts and how we can change our thought patterns to align with God's truth.
TerKeurst introduces the concept of living loved, explaining that when we understand and embrace God's love for us, we can live with confidence and security. She encourages us to let go of the labels others have placed on us and instead, focus on the labels God has given us. The study guide includes exercises to help us identify and replace the negative labels we've internalized.
In the final part of the study guide, TerKeurst focuses on embracing God's invitations. She explains that even in the midst of rejection, God extends invitations to us - invitations to intimacy, to trust, and to purpose. She encourages us to accept these invitations and to live our lives in response to God's love rather than in reaction to our past rejections.
Throughout the study guide, TerKeurst shares personal stories, biblical insights, and practical advice to help us navigate the pain of rejection and embrace God's love. The guide includes discussion questions and activities to facilitate personal reflection and group interaction. By the end of the study, participants are equipped to live confidently in God's love, regardless of the rejections they may face.
