Back to the Future: [Un]expected return- Lukewarm Faith

Revelation 3:15-16 | “I know all the things you do, that you are neither hot nor cold. I wish that you were one or the other! But since you are like lukewarm water, neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth!”

• How would you describe a hot, cold, and lukewarm faith? 

  • Younger kids: 

    • What is something that is really good cold? 

    • What is something that is really good hot? 

    • Can you think of something that is good cold or hot, but not when it is lukewarm/room temperature?

    • What does a hot or cold faith in Jesus look like?

• Why doesn’t God want ‘lukewarm’ followers? 

• Think about your own relationship with God. Would you describe it as hot (growing, passionate, on fire), cold (neglected, non-existent), or lukewarm (indifferent, convenient, backburner)? Why? 

  • In light of this passage, what does God think about your faith? 

  • What type of faith (hot, cold, or lukewarm) is accepted into Heaven? 

  • What, if anything, do you need to change?
