Who We Are
Hidalgo
Clip: Chapter 3, time: 16:10
The clip is the conversation (all in subtitles) between Frank and his Native
American companion in the Wild West Show (clip begins when Frank wakes up
from a nightmare and ends with Frank receiving a leather necklace from the
Chief). The Native American tells Frank why he calls him “Far Rider.” Not
because he has won many long-distance races, but because he is running away
from who he is. (It is revealed later in the movie that Frank is half Sioux and
half white. He doesn’t feel at home in either world and ends up running away
from who he is.)
Jonah 1:1-3
1. What are some of the things you’ve run away from?
2. Are you aware of who you are?
3. Are you comfortable with who you are?
1 Cor. 15:9-11
1. We often feel that we are not “up to the task” when it comes to what God
needs us to do. But He has called us to be husbands, fathers, and leaders in
our community. Did God make a mistake with you?
2. What are some of your gifts that you A) like to do; B) are good at; and C)
you think God could use in His Kingdom?
3. Can you identify an event in your past that, now that you look back on it,
you can see God’s hand in preparing you for who you are and what you are
called to do today?
