On Sunday, October 5 2025 at Wildwood Community Church, I preached a sermon based on the life of Isaiah.  This message was part 9 of the “Scarlet Thread” sermon series.  Below you will find questions related to the message for personal reflection or group discussion.  You will also find the audio/video of the message to listen to/watch, or download.

Sermon Questions:

1. Pray


2. Read Isaiah 52:13-53:12


3. How does knowing that Jesus KNEW the suffering that awaited Him on earth (and came anyway) impact the way you think about Jesus and His interest in the Father’s will and our well-being? 


4. There are 80+ allusions in the New Testament to Isaiah’s “Servant Song” of Isaiah 52:13-53:12 .  What are some of the things you see in this song that point to Jesus?


5. Isaiah’s song makes it clear that Jesus died for OUR SIN.  This was no accident, it was an operation.  It was a necessary thing to save us from the consequences of our rebellion against God.  What is your attitude toward your sin?  Do you tend to minimize it (it’s not that big a deal)? Blame others for it (I only sinned because you/they _________)? Or do you own and confess your sin, knowing it is a serious matter?  


6. This week concludes our 9 week journey through the Old Testament.  What has stood out to you the most from this series?  Any particular change in your life or new perspective you have developed because of this series?


7. What stands out to you most from this message?  Any particular takeaway?
