The people you are teaching bible study curriculum to are in need of restoration. There are probably many people in your group whose lives are broken in many different ways. How do I know this? One is just playing the odds. In my experience there has always been a broken life in every group I have taught. You could also look at statistics to see the sin and effects of sin in our world and assume that someone in your group's life is broken. Or, and this is what you should do, you can look at scripture. You can see that we are all guilty of sin and sin destroys our lives. But we also see that in scripture is the story of restoration. It is God's story of redeeming sin and everything sin has touched. That is the story of hope people in your group need to hear. Whether they are struggling with addictions, broken relationships, or whatever they need to hear that God is God who loves them and wants to offer them hope and restoration. Look for opportunities to do that today.
