Sermon Review Questions: from the Sermon on the Mount "Where We Rest" – 7/8/12

Questions taken from Matthew 6:25-30:

1.    How does having our one treasure, one vision, and one Master (Matthew 6:19-24) motivate us not to be anxious? (Remember from the sermon: “Anxiety comes from duplicity”)




2.    What kinds of things are worried about today (even in an affluent society like ours)?  What kinds
of things do you personally worry about day to day?  What does worry accomplish?




3.    Vs. 26 shows us that our Heavenly Father values us – What has God done to show us that he values us?  (see also Romans 8:32)



4.    Consider the birds and the flowers, what does this show you about God’s care for you?



5.    How is “not worrying” different from a lazy or indifferent attitude?



6.    What does our anxiety indicate about our belief in God?




7.    What should we preach to ourselves when we’re tempted to worry?



8.    What is your response to this passage of scripture that will allow you to be more like Christ in this next week?
