Discussion Questions for "Under the Overpass"



After reading this book, do you have a different view of the homeless?
If you had to be homeless, based on Mike and Sam's experiences, would you
rather be in Denver, Washington DC, Portland, San Francisco, Phoenix or San Diego?  Why?

On page 45, Psalm 34:18 is quoted, "The Lord is close to the broken hearted." and he says, "I wondered if pretending you're not broken keeps God at a distance."
He also says, "If we are the body of Christ--and Christ came not for the healthy but the sick--we need to be fully present in the places where people are most broken."  Talk about this.

Doug ( San Diego, pg. 196) longed for God to "fix" him but he wasn't willing to stop doing the very thing that grieved him.  Do you agree it's a scary thought that there might be something in your life that you have prayed for deliverance from yet you refuse to let go of that thing?

I marked lots of things in this book, but due to lack of space I won't mention all of them......Were there other incidents that stood out to you that I haven't mentioned?

Talk about Carla ( pg. 206)

He gave some suggestions for things to do to help America's homeless.  Did you think these were good ideas?
Is there something God would have you stop doing, start doing or continue doing as a result of reading this book?
