Use the following information to introduce Question #1. In February 2019, the J.D. Power marketing research company released its annual report on the most dependable cars. For this year's study, they looked at 2016 model year cars and tracked their dependability. Their survey showed that Lexus is the most dependable brand (for the eighth consecutive year). Porsche and Toyota tied for second. Chevrolet and Buick ranked fourth and fifth. Say: All of us can probably think of some "dependable" and "not-so-dependable" items we have owned.

Just moments after he called off the activities, the storm with its straight-line winds hit the church. "We were just about to go in there for our Wednesday night service," Haney said. "The front quarter of the sanctuary was peeled off by the high wind. The whole altar area is basically exposed to the sunshine. Part of the roof that blew off landed on another part of our building and demolished some of our Sunday School space like a missile hit it." It was estimated that the straight-line winds reached speeds of over 100 mph. "Two days ago, life was normal -- whatever that is," Haney said. "Now, we're kind of in chaos, but God's been moving and we've been seeing a lot of blessings in the midst of this." Say: Even as they recover from the terrible storm destruction, this congregation can see evidence of God's blessings. Then call attention to Question #4 (When has God greatly blessed you through a crisis?) and invite volunteers to respond.
