SERMON STUDY GUIDE Sunday June 21st, 2015
1. What is the worst water you have ever tasted? Why did you drink
it?
2. What is something with which you wish you had a “do-over”? What
needs to be made new in your life?
3. Read Revelation 3:14. Jesus is the one who makes things new and
gives new beginnings. How has this been true in your life?
4. Read Revelation 3:15-16. How do you like your beverages? What
is the problem with something being lukewarm? What is Jesus’
problem with a follower of his being lukewarm?
5. What does it look like to be lukewarm in following Jesus? How
does someone become lukewarm? How can you stay hot/cold in
your spiritual life?
6. Pastor David said, “Jesus is what you aren’t looking for.” How do
we find ourselves not looking for Jesus? What does Jesus offer us
if we seek him?
7. When is the last time someone told you they loved you? When is
the last time you told someone you loved them? Why is that
significant?
8. Read Revelation 3:19-20. Do you believe Jesus loves you? How
do you know he loves you? What would it take for you to begin
believing Jesus loves you?
9. Jesus gives “do-overs.” We can’t escape the consequences of our
past but they don’t have to control our present or our future. Pray
to Jesus that he would do that extraordinary thing you need in your
life. Tell a friend what it is and ask them to pray with you.

tree, and make the dry tree flourish. I am the LORD; I have spoken,
and I will do it.”” (Ezekiel 17:24, ESV)
