<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>**There are no application questions for this Sunday. See you next Sunday!<br>_____________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. How often do you make the direct connection between Christ’s birth and his death? Do you find it challenging to make that connection? If so, why?<br> <br>2. Is it hard for you to see yourself as someone in captivity and in need of ransom?<br> <br>3. Do you see anything of yourself reflected in the request of James and John in verses 35-37?<br> <br>4. In what context in your life is it most challenging for you to follow the self-giving example of Jesus? What context in your life provides the greatest opportunity for you to do so?<br>_____________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. Do you find it hard to believe that Jesus is, as this story shows, a “friend of sinners”? Do you find it hard to believe that he desires fellowship with you, even though you fall short? Why do you think that is? What specific truths from the Bible can help you?<br><br>2. Imagine you have a friend who is not a Christian and doesn’t see their need for Jesus; they don’t believe they’re “lost” or a “sinner.” How would you have a conversation with them to try and help them see their need for what Jesus came to do?<br><br>3. When Zacchaeus trusted in Jesus, his faith showed itself in repentance with how he used his money. Jesus transformed him. How has Jesus transformed you?<br><br>4. How can you be more attentive to the ways God is drawing people around you to himself, and how can you make yourself more available for him to use in seeking and saving the lost?<br>_____________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. When you think about the purpose of Christ being born, what are the things that come to your mind? Has this idea of him coming “to bear witness to the truth” been a significant part of your thinking?<br><br>2. Much is made of Christ’s kingship, both at this birth (see Matthew 2:1-12) and at his death (John 18:32-37; 19:19-20). How regularly do you think of Jesus as your King? What are the implications of his being your King?<br><br>3. Do you deeply believe that “the truth” Jesus speaks is the truth for all people? What pressures do you feel pushing you away from believing that? What helps you to believe that this truth is the same for all?<br>______________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. How has this series on death most affected you? Is there some truth from God’s Word that has been newly planted or that has grown stronger?<br> <br>2. What specifically about the resurrection of your body most excites you?<br> <br>3. Is there a part of Paul’s teaching on the resurrection body that is particularly difficult for you to believe? What truth about God will strengthen your belief?<br><br>______________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. Paul says “to die is gain” largely because it means being with Jesus. Does the idea of actually being with Jesus capture your heart? What are the things of this life that might rival, or even undermine, your desire for Christ?<br> <br>2. Are you afraid of dying? What exactly is it about dying that frightens you? What word of truth has God spoken to allay your fears?<br><br>______________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. Which of the three “weights” of the inevitability of death are you presently most aware of in your life—its temptation to meaninglessness, the uncertainty of its timing, or the gradual debilitation of your body?<br> <br>2. Is there a corresponding delight in the specific “overturning” work of God through Christ? Review I Corinthians 15:57-58, I Peter 1:3-5, and II Corinthians 4:16-18 to help you answer this question.<br> <br>3. What step might you take this week to let the good news of the gospel help you face the reality of death? Will you take that step?<br><br>______________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. What is the closest experience you’ve had with death? What did that loss teach you about the reality of death?<br> <br>2. As you observe the world around you, are there ways that you see Satan continue to minimize the threat or penalty of death?<br> <br>3. Read Hebrews 2:14-15. Do your best to describe the effect on your mind and heart of knowing that in Christ death has been defeated and is no longer something to be feared for those in Christ.<br><br>______________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. Last week I asked you, how often do you think about your death? Now let me ask you, how often do you think about heaven? When you do think about heaven are your thoughts vague and fuzzy or clear and distinct, shaped by biblical truth (like I Peter 1:4)?<br> <br>2. Think about what Jesus actually accomplished in his resurrection. How closely do you identify what happened for him with what will happen to you? Consider passages like John 11:25-26; Romans 6:3-5; I Corinthians 15:17-23.<br> <br>3. Which of the three things Peter names as right responses to the truth of our “living hope” do you feel most deeply—hope (v. 13), love (v. 8) or joy (v. 8)? Why do you think that is?<br>______________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. How often do you think about the brevity of your life and the fact of your own death? When you do think about the reality of dying is it with morbid, negative thoughts or thoughts marked by the confidence and peace gained through biblical truth?<br> <br>2. What particular truths from God’s word regarding death are especially precious to you? Are there truths you know in your head but that you want to be more functionally useful and precious to you? What can you do to make that happen?<br><br>______________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. Of the three characteristics of God highlighted in I Thessalonians 5:23-24 which do you have the deepest personal grasp of? Which one means the most to you? For which do you have the least developed appreciation?<br> <br>2. Do you feel any temptation personally to “take advantage” of your justification by allowing some pattern of sin to continue in your life? What warnings does the Bible give regarding that possibility?<br><br>______________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. The definition of prophecy used was "telling something the Spirit spontaneously brings to mind." What do you think of that definition? How is it similar or different from what you've thought/experienced?<br>2. There are two ditches of poorly approaching prophecies: being overly cautious or overly consumed. Neither are best. If you did lean towards one ditch, which one would it be? Why?<br>3. When you gather together, whether on Sundays or in Gospel Community or informally, do you tend to be a consumer or contributor? What would it look like to grow in contributing?<br>4. What's a good step for you to grow in hearing the Spirit's voice? <br>5. How can you ensure that the priority of God's word and faithful teaching isn't lost while eagerly desiring the work of God's Spirit in and through you?<br>______________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. Of the three things we’re instructed to do in I Thessalonians 5:16-18—rejoice always, pray always, give thanks always—which feels the most challenging to you? Why do you think that is?<br> <br>2. Do you feel like you truly understand, and then actually make, the connection between verses 9-10 and verses 16-18? What specifically about what God has done for you motivates you toward joy, prayer, and gratitude?<br>_________________________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. What is the basic posture of your heart toward the leaders in our church? Are you limiting your “respect” and “esteem” to just some of them?<br> <br>2. How aware are you of the spiritual condition of those around you? Do you feel like you know when someone is “idle”? When they are “fainthearted”? When they are “weak”?<br> <br>3. Have you had an experience of being sinned against recently by someone in the church? What has been your response?<br>_________________________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. How much do you think about the second coming of Jesus? If you don’t think about it much, why is that? Is it that you’ve never been taught about it and being unaware of it hinders your eagerness for it? Is it that your heart has grown somewhat cold and you don’t feel the preciousness of Jesus and that seeing him will be the greatest thing? Is it that you are afraid of what might happen on that day? Is it something else?<br> <br>2. Consider I Thessalonians 5:8. How might your purposed pursuit of faith, love, and hope make you more prepared for Christ’s second coming?<br> <br>3. Who do you know that might need the encouragement of the truth of Christ’s second coming? Think of a gentle and loving way to provide that encouragement and purpose to do that.<br>__________________________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. Have you lost a loved one who was a Christian? How much are you allowing biblical truth about a Christian’s death to influence how you think and how you feel about that loss?<br> <br>2. How often do you think about your own death? How much are you allowing biblical truth to influence how you think and how you feel about that?__________________________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>Do you think about God primarily as a God of judgment or a God of mercy? What makes you think that?<br> <br>2. Is there any danger in emphasizing the fact that God pardons our sin? What will protect us from that danger?<br> <br>3. What is the sweetest part of Micah 7:18-20 for you? How might you keep that truth close in order to keep treasuring it?<br><br>__________________________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. What are some ways that gratitude was stirred up in your life because of the sermon?<br><br>2. Are there particular ways that you think gratitude for God's mercy has been lacking in your life?<br><br>3. How can considering our similarities to the sailors, the people of Nineveh, and the Samaritan leper help us grow in gratitude?<br>4. What is one practical step you will take this week to be more grateful for God's mercy in your life?<br>__________________________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. Read Exodus 34:5-7. Why is it important be continually reminded of both the mercy and justice of God? What happens if we neglect one or the other of these truths?<br><br>2. Do you find it easy or difficult to trust that God’s heart towards you is characterized by mercy, even when you fail to live for him? How does the book of Jonah help in this?<br><br>3. One sign of trouble in Jonah’s heart was that he was more concerned about the plant that made his booth more comfortable than he was the people in Nineveh who needed God’s mercy. How is this an expression of pride? Are there ways this self-focus shows up in your life?<br><br>4. Do you regularly pray to share God’s heart towards unbelievers and opportunities to speak with them about Jesus? Is there a particular relationship in which you want to increasingly have both compassion and opportunities to share?<br><br>5. Think of people, groups, or political movements in our culture that you perceive as threatening to the freedoms of Christians. Does it help your posture of heart towards them to remember that “they don’t know their right hand from their left”? What do you think it looks like to speak and to act towards them out of a heart of compassion rather than contempt?<br>__________________________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. Who would you consider your enemy today? Think of people/groups that stand on the opposite side of the spectrum socially/politically/culturally/spiritually. What is your primary posture towards these "enemies"?<br> <br>2. Share a time you've experienced the inclusive mercy of God giving you a second chance.<br> <br>3. Share a time you've experienced God calling you to something that was hard.<br> <br>4. Do you feel called to be a part of God's mission to make disciples? Why or why not?<br> <br>5. The inclusive mercy of God is brutally honest and abundantly compassionate. Which of these realities comes easier for you? Why? Why is the other side hard? How can you pursue embodying both in your relationships?<br>__________________________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. God’s severe mercy landed Jonah in the belly of a fish. Why is it important that we have this category of severe mercy—where God in his mercy brings hurt and pain— for our own lives? <br><br>2. When have you experienced God’s saving mercy in your own life?<br><br>3. What happened to Jonah when he minimized his own sin and looked on the sins of other people and groups? Why is it so important to think often about your own sin? Why is it important to look less on the sins of other people and other groups?<br><br>__________________________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. Jonah chapter 1 paints a picture of God as sovereign: in control of everything from a great storm to the casting of lots. Do you find the sovereignty of God more comforting or troubling? Why?<br><br>2. Jonah’s disobedience started when he elevated his nation above God in his priorities—he made his people an idol. Is there anything in your life that you find to be regularly challenging your obedience to God or your commitment to spending time with him? Do you have any relationships in which you are displeasing God in order to please another person? What do you think God wants you to do about these things?<br><br>3. God sent a storm after Jonah in order to turn him around and restore him to right relationship with God—the storm was a severe mercy. How does this inform how we think about suffering that comes into our lives?<br><br>4. Think of people who feel like enemies to you—maybe people who have wronged you, or are wronging you, or whose opinions you think are dangerous or harmful. How should knowing that God has mercy for his enemies shape the way you think about, pray for, and relate to them?<br><br>__________________________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. Of the three instructions given in I Thessalonians 4:11—living quietly, minding your own affairs, and working with your hands—with which do you struggle the most? Where does that struggle show up for you and what does it look like?<br> <br>2. Which of the two reasons for living like this that Paul names in verse 12 is most motivating for you?<br> <br>3. What does all this have to do with the gospel?<br><br>__________________________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. In what way is connecting God’s love for us to our love for one another helpful to how you think about loving others?<br> <br>2. Think about some of the “one anothers” in the Bible: greet one another, welcome one another, encourage one another, serve one another, bear one another’s burdens. What opportunities might you have in the near future to show love to another believer in those ways? How might you be intentional about showing that love?<br><br>__________________________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. What is one thing that stuck out to you from the sermon?<br><br>2. How can we as believers help each other pursue holy sexuality?<br><br>3. What are some ways that you can be tempted to see God’s guard rails as robbing you of joy rather than for your joy? (Grand Canyon Illustration)<br><br>4. What is one step that you need to take in your own life based on the sermon? (It could be new way of thinking or new action)<br><br>__________________________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. Is there a clear and purposeful connection in your mind between the instructions in God’s word and your living of your life? Is there a recent example of you reading something in your Bible and purposing to implement what you read into your life? If that hasn’t happened recently, why do you think that is?<br><br>2. How convinced are you of the goodness of God’s instructions? Is your desire to obey more begrudging or truly joyful?<br><br>3. Are you operating daily with an awareness of Jesus’ presence? What might you do to heighten your awareness of that wonderful reality?<br><br>__________________________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. Are you meaningfully and regularly engaged in shared life with other believers? What does that look like for you? If not, what steps might you take to pursue that?<br> <br>2. Run through the six “effects” of shared life Paul names in I Thessalonians 3:6-13 (i.e., thanksgiving, joy, earnest prayer, longing to do others good, love, and holiness). Which of these do you feel are strongly present in your shared experience? With which do you feel there is room for growth?<br> <br>3. Pick just one of these areas you desire to see growth in. What first step might you take in that direction? Know that God is ready to meet you one step down the path of obedience.<br><br>__________________________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. Are you currently experiencing any opposition for being a Christian? If yes, what does that look like? If no, why do you think that is?<br> <br>2. Have you witnessed another Christian endure opposition recently? How has this affected you?<br> <br>3. What helps you to get outside of the “small frame” of your circumstances and live within the “large frame” of God’s purposes? Are there specific steps or habits you need to be cultivating here?<br><br>__________________________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. Do you have reservations about the authority of God’s word? What are those reservations? How do you think they might be addressed?<br> <br>2. Think about your daily and weekly habits of receiving the word of God. Do you feel like your current habits are allowing you to benefit fully from the “working of the word” (I Thess. 2:13) in your life? Is there some step you feel you could take to strengthen your “Word habits” so as to more fully benefit from its effect?<br><br>__________________________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. Would you say that you speak about Jesus freely with your family, neighbors, and coworkers? Why or why not?<br><br>2. Do you find yourself more often motivated by the desire to please God or the desire to please people (v. 4)? Can you think of a time recently that your desire to please God led you to disappoint someone? Can you think of a time when your desire to please people led you to compromise what God was calling you to?<br><br>3. What are some ways you can grow in your desire to please God?<br><br>4. Think of some people to whom you’re trying to do spiritual good, whether non-Christians, less mature Christians, your children, or someone else. Which facet of self-giving love do you think God wants you to show more of in that relationship: affection (v. 7), availability (v. 8), exertion (v. 9), or exhortation (vv. 10-12)? How could that look?<br><br>__________________________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br> <br>1. Are you a Christian? How do you know?<br> <br>2. What does the idea of being “chosen” by God (v. 4) do in you? What do you think the Bible means that truth to do in you?<br> <br>3. What evidences of genuine conversion (like what Paul names in v. 2) is it encouraging for you to see in your life?<br><br>__________________________________________<br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions: <br> <br>1. Remember back to when you first really heard the gospel. How did you respond?<br> <br>2. How long after responding to the gospel did you become a part of a local gathering of believers? What difference did that make in your living as a Christian?<br> <br>3. Open your Bible to I Thessalonians and just glance over the section headings through the book. What part of I Thessalonians are you most looking forward to? Why is that?</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. Why does God have the writer of Psalm 105 rewrite the events he’s already had Moses record in the book of Exodus? What does the fact that this psalm was written 400 years after Exodus say about its usefulness for us living so many years after the Exodus?<br><br>2. How does that saying, “The way to build trust in a relationship is to make promises and keep them” strike you? Do you think it is true? Does it help you in your appreciation of God or does it seem like it doesn’t really apply?<br><br>3. What promises that God has made are most precious to you and would be most devastating to you if God did not “remember”? What accounts of God’s remembering in the past do you need to “remember” (v. 5) that will help you trust him now?</p>

<p>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532<br><br>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>Think of the two main points from today’s message:<br><br>1. God means his presence with his people to be uninterrupted.<br><br>2. God means his presence to be known by his people.<br><br>Reflect on each of these truths as they relate to your life, and then ask: What is the level of my confidence in and my experience of God’s presence? How do I think about it? How does it affect my day-to-day life? How might I grow in experiencing what God desires for me?</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. Have you allowed any impatience to turn to unbelief and lead you into idolatry? What might that look like?<br> <br>2. Are you currently perhaps experiencing some correction from God that you need to pay attention to? How would you know that it is God’s correction?<br> <br>3. If there has been sin, have you responded to God in true repentance? What would true repentance look like?<br> <br>4. Are you enjoying all that God has for you in Christ today?</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. What struck you most from these chapters of Exodus regarding God’s desire to dwell with his people? Was there something newly precious to you about Jesus and what he has done?<br><br>2. In his commentary on Exodus Alec Motyer says, ‘The Lord, for his part, was willing and ready to dwell in the midst of his people, but it was for them to decide if they wanted him to do so. It is the same for us; we can either engage or neglect these things. We can choose to live at a distance, neglecting those things which would bring God near to us and us near to him.’ Do you desire God’s nearness? What are the things that help you engage with God?</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. Go back and read Exodus 19:4-6 especially noticing the order of things. Are you ever tempted to slip back into thinking that it is your obedience that is the grounds of your standing with God? What is the ground of your standing with God? Why is it tempting to slip back into a works-righteousness? Think about that question carefully because knowing the answer will likely help you avoid the temptation.<br><br>2. Do the 10 Commandments (or any other command from God) sound ‘foreboding’ to you or liberating and confidence-engendering? Where is the truly good life found?<br><br>3. Do you feel like you are God’s ‘treasured possession’? Why or why not?<br><br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions<br><br>1. Have you ever felt like becoming a Christian was leaving something familiar and heading into the wilderness? How so?<br><br>2. Do you feel like you actually know God better now than you did five years ago? One year ago? How did that happen?<br><br>3. Think of a recent example of God providing for you, whether for your physical needs, your spiritual stamina, or some sound guidance. How did you know that it was God’s provision?<br><br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>

<p>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532<br><br>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. God says that his aim in the exodus is that (14:4) 'I will get glory over Pharaoh and all his host, and that the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD.' Does that seem selfish to you? What are some reasons it’s good for us that God is committed to displaying his glory and revealing who he is?<br><br>2. This passage reveals God as his people’s present shepherd. What circumstances in your life right now make you feel your need for a shepherd to lead you and provide for you? How does this passage help you in your need?<br><br>3. God is his people’s gracious Savior. Do you ever find it difficult to keep a firm hold on this truth and instead feel more sure of God’s love when you’re obeying him consistently and less sure of his love when you fall short? How does seeing the way he deals with his people in this passage help you?<br><br>4. God is his people’s victorious king. Through the death and resurrection of Jesus he has defeated our greatest enemies: sin, death, and the devil. How does being deeply assured of this lead not to living however we want, but living for him? Have you seen this change in your own life?</p>

<p>Sermon Application Questions:<br><br>1. Have you had an experience of God preserving you through a spiritually dangerous or challenging time?<br><br>2. Have you ever wondered if God is really able to preserve you through everything all the way to the end? What kinds of things make you wonder that?<br><br>3. It is clear that God’s working through the plagues and though the exodus is so that people will know, without doubt, that he is the one true and all-powerful God. What difference is that truth making in your life?<br><br>4. Were you surprised to hear God call the Egyptians 'my people' (Isaiah 19:25)? What does that do to your vision of God and his purposes? What implications might this have on your own sense of belonging to God? What implications might it have for how you see others?<br><br>Music and Lyrics Used by Permission CCLI# 1595532</p>
