No One Left Behind: A Father’s Call to Lead
Exodus 10:7–11
Discussion Questions
1. Refusing Compromise: The text highlights Moses’ refusal to accept Pharaoh’s compromise, insisting that the entire family—young, old, sons, daughters—must leave Egypt. What are some modern-day compromises that fathers might face, and how can they practically resist these pressures to lead their families faithfully?
2. Guarding the Home: The sermon discusses how the enemy uses tools like smartphones and cultural lies (e.g., over-diagnosis of mental health issues, unbiblical identities) to influence families. What specific steps can fathers take to guard their homes against these influences, such as setting boundaries for technology or seeking biblical counseling? How can wives support their husbands in this role?
3. Trusting God as Priestly Intercessors: Moses stood as a priestly intercessor for his people, and the sermon encourages fathers to pray continually for their families, even when children drift spiritually. How can fathers cultivate a consistent habit of intercessory prayer for their wives and children? What encouragement does scripture offer to fathers who feel inadequate or discouraged in this role?
4. Teamwork in Marriage: The sermon emphasizes that husbands and wives are a team, with wives called to encourage their husbands rather than label their shortcomings. How can couples work together to build a spiritually strong home? Share practical ways husbands and wives can support each other in leading their family toward Christ’s freedom.
