John 1:14-18 - "Godful"

Sermon Discussion Questions 1) Read Psalms 42-43 out loud. How have you sought and experienced the life-giving presence of God this year? 2) How have you “beheld” the glory of Jesus in your life (hint: any transformational encounters with Jesus' “grace and truth”)? 3) The Word became flesh to fill our whole human existence with His divine goodness and glory. What aspects of your “flesh” are you most longing for Jesus to fill-up and/or redeem?

John 1:1-18

Sermon Discussion Questions 1) What we believe reveals a lot about us. What are some popular beliefs that reflect well on us in our current cultural climate? What are some unpopular beliefs that don’t reflect so well? 2) A.W. Tozer famously wrote, “What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us.” More specifically, what we think about Christ as the pre-existent Son incarnated for us and for our salvation is the most important thing about us. What comes int...

Amos 9:11-15 - Post Tenebras Lux

Sermon Discussion Questions 1) James cites Amos 9:11-12 in his corroboration of Peter’s ministry experience among the Gentiles with prophetic testimony. Why do you he think he chose this passage of Scripture among all the prophetic texts that spoke of God’s future blessing / inclusion of the Gentiles? 2) According to Amos 9:12, God’s restoration of David’s dynasty and kingdom (9:11) was in part "so that the remnant of humanity and all the nations called by my name might seek the Lord.” How are w...

Amos 7:10-17

Discussion Questions: 1) Read the the Westminster Longer Catechism Questions 144 and 145 to reflect on where this searchlight most exposes and challenges us. 2) Have you ever been slandered or misrepresented? How have you responded? 3) The call to follow Christ ensures slander, misunderstanding, and rejection from the world. But this is to be blessed, according to Jesus (see Matthew 5:10-11). How might you overcome fear of social rejection among your peers and lean into kingdom blessing in the c...

Amos 7:1-9

Discussion Questions: 1) The prophets’ role included interceding or mediating on behalf of the people to whom God sent them (see Ge.18:22-33; 20:17; Ex.32:1-35). As the true Prophet (Acts 3:19-26), Christ is our great intercessor before the throne of God (Rom.8:34). Knowing you have this advocate at the Father’s right hand, what are you grateful for specifically? Name one prayer or request that you’re asking Christ to mediate for you now? 2) Who are you interceding for in prayer currently? How c...

Amos 6:1-14

James continues our sermon series on Amos. Sermon discussion questions: 1. Discuss the following summary of Amos 6:1-2: "Woe to the self-secure; for they will never be safe." How does our pride lull us into complacency and a false security? 2. Discuss the following summary of Amos 6:3 (see also 5:18): "Woe to the ever-optimistic; for their whole glass shall be empty." How does the false promise of inevitable progress or unconditioned blessing dull our moral senses? 3. Discuss the following summa...

Amos 4:1-13 - Trifling with the Almighty

Sermon Discussion Questions 1. In their extravagant comfort, the privileged women of Northern Israel had grown quite complacent to the plight of poor, even complicit in their oppression (4:1). In what ways are we in danger of growing similarly complacent and perhaps complicit in prospering from the disadvantaging of the poor and disenfranchised? 2. What personal idols or self-imposed rituals are we tempted to turn to in order to self-atone for our guilty consciences as comfortable and complacent...

Amos 2:4-16

Sermon Discussion Questions 1) Satan’s lies aren’t anything new, and they’ve unfortunately been all too effective for far too long. If we’re honest, we’ve been like Judah (Amos 2:4-5) in that we’ve bought into some of the same idolatrous lies that many of our ancestors have, particularly here in America. Are there any specific idols and/or lies that have deceived you in your lifetime? How have they affected you? 2) God doesn’t sugarcoat His indictment(s) of Israel (v. 6-8). What makes their tran...
