Scripture
Icebreaker Question
What is something you would find very hard to give up for 30 days—even if you knew it would probably be good for you?
Questions
- According to verses 22–23, what does Paul’s interaction with the Athenians reveal about humanity’s instinct to worship, and how does this challenge the idea that some people are ‘non-religious’?
- How does Paul describe God in verses 24-28? Why does this make Him uniquely worthy of worship above all others?
- According to verses 29–31, why does Paul insist that God alone must be worshiped, and how does the resurrection of Jesus make this an urgent matter?
- Why does Paul connect repentance so closely with worship rather than just behavior? How does the reality of resurrection and judgment shape the way we think about who or what deserves our devotion?
Next Steps
Identify what most shapes your time, trust, and decisions, and consciously re-orient those areas toward the worship of the one true God who made you, sustains you.
Prayer Focus
Pray that God would expose false objects of worship in our hearts and lead us to respond with repentance, reverence, and whole-life devotion to Him alone.
