Week 9: Matthew, Luke, JohnOPEN IN PRAYER

CHECK-IN 

How is your reading journey? Have you found yourself tempted to neglect your reading in order to spend more time listening to the news and social media? Have you found God’s Word influencing the way you view the world and our current crises, or have you found the crises influencing how you interpret God’s word? Or perhaps a combination of both?

DISCUSSION:

Choose Your Starting Point

Need a few textual questions to get started? Want to jump right into reflection?

1. This week we have seen Jesus in His element, teaching and performing miracles. What have been your “first impressions” getting to know Jesus? If you had been an onlooker, or even one of the disciples, what would you think about Jesus based on the stories you have read this week?

1. What did you learn about God (His character and nature)?

2. What did you learn about humankind (and our tendencies)?

3. How then shall we live (based on what we learned about God and His people)?
