These questions are a guideline for your personal or small group study based on Sunday's sermon passage. Feel free to study and meditate on the passage more deeply. ​​

1. Romans 12:1 describes worship as presenting our bodies as a “living sacrifice.”, How does that expand our understanding of worship beyond music and Sunday gatherings into the whole of everyday life?

2. “Time reveals what we truly value.” When you examine your calendar, routines, and priorities, what do they honestly reveal about what you worship most?

3. Jesus calls us to “seek first the Kingdom” (Matthew 6:33). What is the difference between giving God our first and giving Him our leftovers, and why is that distinction spiritually significant?

4. In the parable of the talents and passages like 1 Peter 4:10, stewardship is measured by faithfulness, not by comparison. How does that challenge both insecurity (“I have too little”) and pride (“I have more than others”)? 

5. “Spiritual gifts and talents are not trophies to display, but tools to use.” Where might you be burying, underusing, or mistreating what God has entrusted to you?

6. Our treasures often expose the heart more than any other area. How does Jesus’ statement, “Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also,” confront the way you think about what you treasure?

7. If worship is ultimately measured by what is surrendered on the altar of your life, what would deeper surrender look like for you right now in your time, your talents, and your treasure?
