The Days of Shadow (Hwy33)

The Days of Shadow. 1 Chron. 29:10-20 David set’s himself to the task of preparing the materials and paying the cost for God’s temple to be constructed by Solomon. But David does not just give enough, he gives generously, which sparks an avalanche of giving from all of Israel. Living generously changes the world. General What stood out to you in the sermon? What was one thing in the sermon that was challenging? What was one thing in the sermon that was encouraging? What do you want to be different this week in your life? Sermon Specific Have you ever experienced a view that has taken your breath away? Describe the feeling and impact. Revival is similar, it is a peak moment where heaven and earth feel in step. Have you experienced or witnessed revival? Did it lead to life change? Why or why not? Wealth and debt are repeatedly addressed in the Bible. Often paired with these is the call to forgive (e.g. Mat. 18:21-35). Why does Jesus connect wealth, debt, and forgiveness so often? What makes forgiveness so difficult? David set an intimidating example for us. He gave to God an equivalent of around 6 billion dollars in today’s standard. What would have to happen in your own heart, mind, or lifestyle to give that much away? Glen reminded us that our job or business is not our vocation. Our work is to share the gospel and follow Jesus. What obstacles prevent us from taking our calling from God more seriously? Do you think it is easier to live out God’s call if you are a pastor, missionary, or evangelist? Name something you can do this week that reveals your true calling from God to others.
