                                                    DISCUSSION QUESTIONS:
- Has there ever been a time you felt you were working for God but didn’t see the results (the glory/fire) you hoped for? What did that feel like? How did you respond? How does this passage speak to that moment? 
- How would you answer the question, “What are you working for?” (i.e. What is your life’s purpose?) Where do you need to repent? Where are you feeling encouraged?

- Is there a time in your life where God has called you to a new ministry, family decision, job, etc… and you faced hardship in following Him?  
- Which one of these things is the most common challenge you face in following Jesus:  1)  Discouragement from other people   2)  Physical limitations  3) Sin in your life or from others? How do you stay close to Jesus in the midst of those challenges? 
- Pray for anyone at your table facing trouble or obstacles in following Jesus today.

                                                    DISCUSSION QUESTIONS:
- Which part of the definition of worship we used today (The regular, corporate gathering where we run towards God remembering our salvation) are you most in need of hearing? Why?
- Why does worship sometimes feel like work to you? How does Jesus meet you in those places?
- If fear drove Israel to the altar, where does fear drive you?

- What does our world say it takes to have a life that matters? How does Ezra 2 contradict that?
- Which of these 8 reasons discussed today stands out the most to you? Why?
- What would it feel like to belong to a church that valued these 8 things? How is that different from the rest of society?

                                                    DISCUSSION QUESTIONS:
- When your loves become dis-ordered, what is it that typically takes the place of God as your primary love?
- If God really is sovereign and faithful, as Ezra says He is, how does that impact your day to day living?
- In light of these themes, what do you hope the Spirit stirs in your heart as we study Ezra-Nehemiah over the next few months?
