Sermon Discussion Questions: 1:What reasons might we be tempted to follow Jesus other than a genuine commitment to Him? How do we know our motives are right? 2: How does Jesus’s grouping of the teaching that He is the Son of Man with the teaching that He has no place to lay His head challenge our notions of success? 3: How do Christians navigate the tension between an ultimate commitment to Christ and duties to our families? 4: How do we prepare for adversity so we don’t feel ripped off when the Christian life doesn’t “go well?”
Sermon Discussion Questions 1. Who might be considered modern-day “lepers?” How does Jesus change our thinking about them? 2.
