Confront the Scandal of Our Prejudices—Part 11
FOR DISCUSSION AND REFLECTION
- Are there prejudices in the North American church that still grieve the heart of God? If so, what are they?
- Sincere Christians sometimes reinforce their prejudices by appealing to Scripture. How is this possible?
- In an effort to overcome prejudice and show love and understanding, Christians can sometimes compromise what Scripture teaches. Give an example of how this might happen.
- Who are people or groups you have prejudged or were prejudiced toward in the past?
- Has the Holy Spirit been revealing any new prejudices you need to correct? What has God been showing you?
- When it comes to tearing down walls of prejudice, is the church in North America ahead of or behind the secular culture? Why?

Sunday’s coming. Do you have your sermon ready? Is it relevant? Will it effectively motivate your congregation to walk more in step with the Master? What about that Sermon Series you’ve been thinking about?
Or, if you’re someone who plans well ahead, have you asked yourself what you will preach for your Easter Sermon, your Advent Sermon, your Christmas Sermon?
David Mains and Mainstay Ministries can help. We offer a wide variety of Sermon Starters and Full Sermons that will give you Sermon Ideas to help you prepare for regular Saturday or Sunday sermons, Mid-week Bible Sermons, and Sermons for special occasions.
We also offer assistance as you create Topical Sermons, Sermons Series, and sermons for special times of the year. We have resources available to help you with Advent Celebrations, Advent Sermons, Christmas Sermons, Easter Sunday Sermons, Patriotic Sermons, and more.
