Tonight’s chapter 28. Mark 1:15, Faith
• How have you heard your friends and family define faith?
• Do you sense a difference in the obedience that comes from guilt, fear, and joy (whether to God, parents, or teachers)?
• If you were explaining faith as “allegiance” to a friend, what kind of examples might you use to show what true fidelity really means?
• Are there areas of your life where you want to shift your loyalty to Jesus from “Is this all I have to do?” to “What else can I do?”Core52 Ch 29: Mark 2:27-28, Rest
QUESTIONS:
• Take out a piece of paper. On each of the four margins write one of these words: Work, family, finances, emotions/stress. Ask each person to fold each edge to represent how much margin they have in each of these four areas of their lives.
• What kind of rest rechargesyou?
• How do you need to “come to Jesus” to find rest (Matthew 11.28)?
• Share some ways you have made rest a rhythm. Be specific with habits and behaviors that turn your attention toward God and family.
