A Eulogy for the Proud (Morning)

Ezekiel 28:1–19

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS

  1. What part of the Scripture most impacted you, and why?

  2. When you see Scripture mention “pride,” what are some things that come to mind? Why is it often easier to see pride in others than in ourselves?

  3. Read Proverbs 3:34; James 4:6; and 1 Peter 5:5. Why do you think pride is such a significant sin in the Lord's eyes?

  4. Where do you see pride in your own heart/life? How significant or worrisome do you generally consider your pride to be?

  5. Respond to Joel’s comment that “the humble person is always filled with joy because the humble person sees everything in life as a gift from God.”

  6. How might living in humility actually free you up to experience deeper joy in life? Is there anything preventing you from experiencing the joy of living in humility?

  7. Read Jeremiah 9:23-24. Practically speaking, how might we shift our boasting away from our own abilities and accomplishments and towards the Lord?
