The Glory and Fire Sermon | Leviticus 9:23-10:3

Know Christ as King

K1 Thinking back to the "Sunbeam" analogy from C.S. Lewis, have you ever had a moment—maybe in nature, during worship, or in a quiet time—where you felt like you weren't just "looking at" God’s truth, but actually "looking along" it and experiencing His glory for yourself?

G1 In the first half of our passage [Leviticus 9:23-24], the people respond to God’s fire with a mix of shouting for joy and falling facedown. Why do you think both of those reactions—celebration and deep reverence—are necessary when we encounter God's presence?

G2 We talked about how Nadab and Abihu might have been trying to "control" God or approach Him on their own terms [Leviticus 10:1]. In our lives today, what are some subtle ways we might try to fit God into our plans or "little pans" rather than surrendering to His?

G3 Moses tells Aaron that God must be "proved holy" and "honored" among those who approach Him [Leviticus 10:3]. How does knowing that God is "untamed" and "undomesticated" change the way you pray or show up for worship on Sunday mornings?

G4 The sermon highlighted the potential role of alcohol or desire for control in Nadab and Abihu’s story [Leviticus 10:8-10]. How can we help one another "distinguish between the holy and the common" in a world that often tries to make everything feel common or casual?

G5 It’s a bit scary to think about the "fire of judgment," but we also heard about the "fire of purification" [1 Peter 1:7]. How does it feel to think about God’s fire as something that doesn't just destroy, but actually refines us and brings out the "genuineness of our faith"?

G6 We saw how Jesus is our perfect High Priest, our Tabernacle, and our Sacrifice all in one [Hebrews 2:17-18]. How does resting in the finished work of Jesus take the "pressure" off us when we feel like we aren't "holy enough" to approach a God of fire?

S1 If we want our city and our community to see the "abundance" and glory of God this week, what is one practical way we can live as "sunbeams" that point people back to the Sun?
