  • Our Scripture Reference: Ephesians 6:10-18

  • 12/2: The Belt of Truth

    • Describe the Belt of Truth and explain why it is important to believers. What is the historical background of the belt of truth, and why do you think God gave it to us? How would you use the belt of truth in your everyday life? What are examples of people in the Bible who used the belt of truth in their lives? Did you ever have to use the belt of truth in your life (if so, when)?

  • 12/9: The Breastplate of Righteousness

    • Reflection Questions from last week (12/2): How many pieces does the Armor of God have? What is the Belt of Truth? Who needs to wear the Belt of Truth? Can someone who doesn’t believe wear the Belt of Truth?

    • Questions for the Breastplate of Righteousness: What part of the body would you put the breastplate of righteousness on? How do we receive God’s righteousness? How can the Belt of Truth and the Breastplate of Righteousness be helpful to a believer? Name three places in the New International Bible where you would find the word breastplate of righteousness or breastplate? What is the spiritual meaning of a breastplate? What does Isaiah 59:17 mean, and does it relate to the breastplate of righteousness?

  • 12/16: Feet Prepared for the Gospel of Peace

    • Review Questions for the Belt of Truth & the Breastplate of Righteousness: What does the Belt of Truth primarily represent in the Armor of God? The Breastplate of Righteousness protects what vital part of a believer? How do we receive the righteousness that serves as our breastplate? How does living in God’s truth help you resist temptation, and where do you see the devil attacking truth today?

    • Questions for today 12/16: What is the Gospel of Peace? How do you define peace beyond the absence of conflict? What does it mean to have peace with God, and how does that differ from the world’s peace? How does prayer or gratitude bring you peace? Why are shoes important for a soldier? How does the gospel of peace act as footwear? How does the good news make us stable and prepared to stand firm? How do the shoes help us move forward in spiritual battle rather than stand still? How do Philippians 4:6-7 and 1 Thessalonians 5:18 mean for the topic of the Gospel of Peace?
