Set Apart

Jun 14, 2026  •  Dr. Ben Day, Senior Pastor

SERMON REFLECTION QUESTIONS:

1. What are some things that most strongly shape your identity right now (career, family, politics, hobbies, achievements, etc.)? How does remembering that you are first and foremost one of God's people change the way you view those things?


2. Nehemiah 10 emphasizes that God's people were both diverse and distinct. In what ways do Christians today face pressure to blend in with the world rathe than live as a people set apart? Where do you feel that pressure most personally?


3. The people specifically committed themselves to honoring God in their relationships, their work and rest, and their giving. Which of those areas is most challenging for you to live differently from the surrounding culture, and what would greater faithfulness look like this week?


4. The people renewed their covenant after hearing God's Word and confessing their sin. How do practices like baptism, the Lord's Supper, worship gatherings, and Christian community help us remember who we are in Christ? How can you more intentionally use those means of grace to strengthen your walk with God?
