God Spoke by His Son
A Mission of Service
- Not What We Want
- What We Need
- A Pattern Established
Questions for Further Study or Group Discussion:
- Read Mark 10:32-45. Why does Jesus tell plainly his disciples that he would be crucified in Jerusalem? Why meant they not take in this prediction?
- Considering the context, why is James’ & John’s request so audacious? Why do they make this request? In what ways do we want similar things?
- What is the “cup” and “baptism” Jesus mentions? Why must his disciples participate in the cup and baptism?
- What are the main differences between “worldly” leadership and Christ’s model of leadership? Why does Jesus require this type of leadership?
- What does Jesus reveal that we need? Why does what we want often not correspond with what we need?
