Jesus Reveals Reality (Mark 8:1-10)
Jesus shows the compassionate heart and power of God by feeding another massive crowd of people.
- How have you experienced the compassion of God and His people in your life?
- How can you be like Jesus and show compassion to others?
- Where are the needs? How can you and your Care Group meet those needs?
Pharisees Resist Reality (Mark 8:11-13)
The Pharisees demand Jesus gives them specifically a unique miraculous sign to authenticate His ministry.
- In what ways do we try to make God look like us, work on our timeline, play by our rules and follow our desires?
- What is the difference between unbelief and doubt, and how is that distinction important to the Christian Life?
Disciples Remember Reality (Mark 8:14-21)
Jesus tries to teach His disciples; but they’re too concerned about practical needs, so Jesus reminds them of His provision.
- How have worry and spiritual dullness caused you to miss what God is doing?
- How does remembering God’s faithfulness and blessing in the past encourage you in the midst of fearful uncertainties?
