Mark – Week Six

Group Discussion & Life Challenge

Use these notes as discussion prompts for your group, or in your personal time with God.

Connect:

Get to know each other. Connect, warm up to each other, fellowship.

Care:

Carry each other’s burdens. Share life’s challenges and practice Soul Care. Pray together.

Challenge:
Dive into God’s Word. Use these discussion questions. Learn from each other’s insight

Reflection/Discussion Questions:

Jesus didn’t write a gospel, but instead gave us four gospel writers to share their stories. Each of them was a bit different. How does that thought hit you?

Think about people you have known. Whose stories of what Jesus has done in their lives have impacted you the most?

Jim suggested that Jesus used parables as a teaching tool because they can be understood from different angles. Have you ever had one of Jesus parables strike you differently in different seasons of your life? If so, tell us about it.

Clarify:
Does anyone need clarity on something? Are there any big God questions you are wrestling with?

Celebrate:
Celebrate life’s successes and God’s provision. Worship God’s presence. Time to brag about God.

Through the Bible in one Year

Join us in reading through the entire Bible in one year. Each day of this plan guides you through passages from both the Old and New Testaments, allowing you to see connections between the history of our faith, and the fulfillment of God’s redemptive plan. Readings average four chapters in length, so it is posible to do. When you use the YouVersion Bible App, you can even have the app read the Bible text to you – very useful when you are in the car or otherwise occupied with your hand.

All you need to do is click the link to the Bible Plan, which should lead you straight to the Bible app. Your two options are now (1) to read the plan on your own, one day at the time. Or (2) you can make it more fun and rewarding, by sharing the plan with one or more friends, and then even “Talk about it”.
