MY STORY

1. If you you had a year’s wages to spend on friends, which would you choose:

A. Big party for all

B.  Glorious trip for a few

C.  Extravagant gift for one

 

2. When in your life were you most disappointed with yourself?

 

 

 

 

3. Was there one point from this week’s sermon that particularly caught your attention, challenged you or maybe even confused you more than normal?

 

 

 

 

DIGGING DEEPER

Review the events of Mark 14 on your own, and answer the following questions.

Read Exodus 12:1-13, 21-28.

1. What was the significance of Passover? Why was Passover an appropriate time for the events of Mark 14 to unfold?

 

 

2.  Read Mark 14: 1-11.  What is Jesus trying to teach his disciples about priorities? Whereas the woman gave lavishly for Jesus, Judas wanted to see what he could get from him.  In what ways are you like the woman?  In what ways are you like Judas?

 

 

 

3. Read Mark 14:17-26. How does Jesus’ use of the bread and wine change the emphasis of Passover?  What is the meaning of verse 22 & 24?

 

 

 

 

4.  Read Jeremiah 31:31-33.  How would you describe this new covenant Jesus brought about? 

 

 

 

 

TAKING IT HOME

1.  What “beautiful” thing could you do this week for Jesus (or “the least of these”)?

 

 

 

2. With which disciple do you identify most and why:

A. Judas – I’ve sold out on Jesus?

B.  Those around the table – I want to follow Jesus but I still want to be successful in the eyes of others?

C.  Peter – I am passionately committed to Jesus but sometimes I fall flat on my face?

D. The naked disciple – I follow Jesus but in the moment of crisis I tend to run away from him?

 

3. How does Jesus’ decision to “drink the cup”(Mark 14:36) help you in your obedience to God?  What issue of obedience is challenging to you? 

 

 

 

 

4.  When, if ever, have you felt that your failures made it impossible for you to serve Christ again?  How did you overcome these feelings?  How can your group pray for you?
