Opening Question
Do you ever feel as though you are under constant scrutiny and criticism, being attacked from all sides and even by yourself?

Discussion
Everyone seems to love twenty one pilots, so what in the world would they have to feel insecure about? When we were younger we thought, “When I am older, I’ll have everything figured out. I wont have to listen to anyone.” However, as we get older we realize that we live in a world where no one ever has it all figured out—and, believe it or not, you always have a boss!

“Stressed Out” makes us stop and examine our lives about what is really stressing us out—is it others, or the bullies in our own heads?

• Do you ever wish you were younger when things where simpler?

• Do you ever feel as though your feels and insecurities are taking over your life?

• Do you sense that you are being watched, and that you failing to be what everyone needs?

Satan Loves for us to question our identity and how we measure up to others because then we aren’t focused on Christ. Read Ephesians 6:12.

God tells us over and over in His Word not to worry – He is in charge, He loves us and wants to take care of us. Read Matthew 6:31-24, and 1 John 2:15.

Conclusion
Think about what is really stressing you out, and examine the Scriptures above to see where you can lay yours fears and insecurities.
