Sermon Discussion Questions
1.  What imagery of Ezekiel is most confusing to you? How does Ezekiel’s response to the Lord give us direction and hope when we don’t understand what’s happening in life?
2.  How have you witnessed the Lord work in a surprising or seemingly impossible way that led you to know, in a greater way, that the Lord is God? (see Ezekiel 37:6)
3.  What is the significance of the Lord telling Ezekiel to “prophesy to the breath” (Ezekiel 37:9)? How does this relate to Jesus “breathing” on His disciples in John 20:22? What does the breath of God do to the dead bones in Ezekiel 37? How does the “”breath” of God still work in believers today and what does it mean for your life?
4.  How would you describe the book of Ezekiel in a short sentence or two? Why do God’s people need this book of the Bible? How has it brought encouragement to you so that you might have hope?   (Romans 15:4)
