Take time with your family to discuss these questions (or variations of these questions) together, and reflect on this week’s truth and Word.
1. Question: What were some of the reasons God was angry with his people? What did he want them to do? What does he want us to do?
Takeaway: God calls us to obey and do what he says.
2. Question: Because the Israelites were disobeying, what message did God give Jeremiah for the people? Did the Israelites listen to the message and turn away from their sin? So, what happened?
Takeaway: There is judgment for disobeying God.
3. Question: Since Jeremiah was young when God called him to be a prophet, how did he feel about it? What did he say to God? And how did God comfort him? When Jeremiah spoke God’s word to the Israelites, how did they treat him? What did God do for Jeremiah then?
Takeaway: God will be with us, even if everyone is against us.
4. Question: Despite all the bad news about judgment for disobedience, what good news did Jeremiah share about the new covenant that would come? How did Jesus bring about this good news and rescue sinners from judgment?
Takeaway: Through Jesus’s death, God made a new covenant that rescues us from judgment and frees us to obey God.
