How Crazy Is Your Love?

Our Journey Group is reading Francis Chan’s book Crazy Love together. The last couple of weeks have been a campout in chapter four, “Profile of the Lukewarm.” My friend Matt Willmington summed up the chapter on his blog a few weeks back.

To get the folks in our group thinking more critically about their own ‘temperature,’ I put together this list of questions. Maybe they’ll get you thinking, too. There are no right answers…the questions are purely intended to make you think about yourself in a way you may not have before.

  1. How do you rate the “quality “ of your worship…both on Sunday and throughout the week?
  2. a: How much should you give? b: How much DO you give? (answer with something other than a quantity)
  3. Is the way you handle stress or conflict familiar to non-believers, or would they find it peculiar?
  4. How do you respond to your own sin?
  5. a: What is the most radical thing you’ve done for Christ? b: What is the most radical thing you can THINK of doing?
  6. How familiar are your neighbors/family/coworkers with your faith in Christ?
  7. On a scale of 1-10, how consumed are you with Christ?
  8. How selfish are you when it comes to loving others?
  9. a: How painful is it for you to give the time, money, energy you give for the cause of Christ? b: What leaves you more drained: Your job, or your serving?
  10. a: Have you ever said, “Jesus never said MONEY is the root of all evil, only the LOVE of money is”? b: What is your “calling”?
  11. When you confess your sin, do you also explain it?
  12. True or False? When it comes to obeying God, I should be cautious and strategic.
  13. How secure do you feel?
  14. How structured is your life routine?
  15. How ‘wholesome’ or ‘moral’ are you?
