Cloak of Zeal

from GCF Hays · host Kasey Christie

Life Group Questions 1. The sermon flipped a common image — we tend to picture the devil with fire and flames, but the sermon argued that God is the source of all heat and the devil's domain is cold — the absence of everything God is. How does that reframe the way you think about the spiritual battle you're in every day?2. Zeal isn't a brush fire — it's a bed of hot coals: quiet, steady, hot for hours. The flames get the attention, but the coals do the work. How does that change what it means for you personally to be zealous for God?3. David's first domino wasn't Bathsheba — it was the comfortable rooftop, the moment he chose comfort over calling. Where is your rooftop right now? That is, name the specific place you're choosing comfort over what God is actually asking of you.4. The sermon said the first action to pick your cloak back up is to add fuel — return to what first set you ablaze. What first set you ablaze for God?5. The second action was to borrow coals — get next to someone who is already a blazing inferno. Who is that person for you, and what are you doing this week to get closer to them?
