Small Group Questions (Whole Group):
Read Nehemiah 8:1-12

  1. When you come to a passage of scripture that is dry or tedious (genealogies, measurements of the temple, etc), what can you do to maintain interest and focus?
     
  2. When someone is explaining the Word to you (preaching, commentaries, etc), how do you know if what they are saying is right and true?
     
  3. Does weeping and mourning over your sin increase or decrease your capacity to experience true joy? Why? Or how so?
