JUNE MEMORY VERSE
Romans 1:16-17. For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith.”

Sermon Discussion Questions
1. How does the certainty of God’s coming judgment motivate you to pursue holiness and call others to seek Him?
2. Why is it so difficult to wait on the Lord? (See Zeph. 3:8) When we are in “the Lord’s waiting room” of life, what are some promises of God that we can cling to? (cf. Psalm 147:11; Romans 8:32; 2 Peter 3:11-13)
3. How wouldl you describe how God views you? What is the main source of your answer? How does the truth of Zephaniah 3:17 impact your answer?
4. How would you describe the book of Zephaniah in a short sentence or two? Why do God’s people need this book of the Bible? How has it brought encouragement to you so that you might have hope? (Ro. 15:4)
