Dear Church | Laodicea (Week 7)

August 9, 2026

Read: Revelation 3:14-22

Take time to pray and reflect on this passage. What stands out to you? What questions come to your mind?

  1. Jesus describes the church in Laodicea as “lukewarm.” What do you think it means to be spiritually lukewarm, and what are some warning signs that a person may be drifting into spiritual complacency?
  2. The Laodiceans believed they were rich and needed nothing, but Jesus said they were spiritually poor. Why can comfort, success, and self-sufficiency sometimes make it harder to recognize our need for God?
  3. Jesus challenges the church’s self-assessment. How can we honestly evaluate our spiritual condition instead of relying on appearances or comparisons with others?
  4. Jesus counsels the church to receive true riches, white garments, and healing for their eyes. What do these images teach us about what only Jesus can provide?
  5. Revelation 3:19 says, “Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline.” How does this verse change the way we should view conviction, correction, and God’s discipline in our lives?
  6. Jesus stands at the door and knocks, inviting His people into deeper fellowship with Him. What are some things that can keep us from opening the door fully to Christ?
  7. If Jesus wrote a letter to you personally, what area of your life might He encourage, challenge, or call to repentance today?
  8. The Laodiceans thought they needed nothing, but Jesus offered them everything. Where are you most tempted to rely on your own strength rather than your daily dependence on Christ?
