The following verses, both written by Paul, will help you answer today’s questions:

Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope.  -Romans 5:3-5 (ESV)

Even when we are weighed down with troubles, it is for your comfort and salvation!  For when we ourselves are comforted, we will certainly comfort you.  Then you can patiently endure the same things we suffer.  -2 Corinthians 1:6 (NLT)

Questions:

  • Discuss the relationship between fortitude and the following words:
    • Perseverance
    • Endurance
    • Suffering
    • Patience
    • Hope
  • Come up with your own definition for the word “fortitude.”
