Discussion Questions 1. In your morning routine, how do you wake up? Do you wake up before your alarm or after (or long after, with many snoozes)? 2. What does it mean for a church to be watchful? Satan is always searching for any vulnerability to attack. How do we keep watch against such things? Consider 1 Peter 5:4–11. 3. The church in Sardis had a good reputation with their city, but a bad reputation with Christ. How can we keep watch against this? How can we achieve a good reputation with both Christ and the city? 4. The church in Sardis believed themselves to be alive, but they were dead. There are likely people in our church who believe themselves to be saved, but are not. How do you know that you are not one of these people? If you have never surrendered to Jesus as Lord, will you do so today? 5. Jesus knows the deeds of Sardis and tells them to wake up. Take time to ask Jesus to search your life. Ask Him to reveal any cracks that need to be filled or dead areas where you need to wake up. Then listen. Message notes available at newhopechurchmn.org/messages.
