1. Share a time when you found yourself trying to help in an
overwhelmingly difficult situation. How did you feel? How did
you carry on in spite of the difficulties?
2. Share how you did with last week’s specific and measurable
response to God’s Word? See question 5 from last week.
3. Recap this week’s passage in less than a minute. What did
you learn about God (Father, Son, or Holy Spirit)? What did
you learn about yourself?
4. As you read Isaiah 2-6 what are some categories of sin
the people are falling into? How are Isaiah 2:1-5 & 4:2-6
different from the rest of our text? Why is the catalog of
failure and judgement in the rest of Isaiah 2-5 needful or
helpful?
5. In Isaiah 5:1-7 we read the “Song of the Vineyard.” In the
New Testament gospels, how did Jesus tie into this vineyard
imagery?
6. In Isaiah 6:8 the prophet says, “Here am I, send me.” What
kind of response was he told to expect (v.9-13)? What from
these chapters would give him a glimmer of hope? How
hopeful are you when you share about Jesus?
7. Having heard this section of Isaiah, identify one specific act of
obedience you plan to do this week?
8. Write a one or two sentence prayer incorporating what you
learned from the sermon and study this week. Share with
your group.
