Jesus seeks service, not selfishness.

SCRIPTURES:

Matthew 19:13-20:33, Leviticus 19:18, Isaiah 64:6, Philippians 2:3-4

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS:

Q: When you see something that’s out of place, do you typically think

“someone needs to fix that”, or jump in & see how you can help?

Q: How do the Scriptures/concepts from this week help you grow as a disciple

who loves God, loves people & serves the world (lives on incarnational

mission) in everyday life?

Q: Based on these Scriptures, how can you move from unbelief to belief, from

just knowing to actually doing in your life?

Connect with God (UP)…

Q: Read Matthew 19:13-30. How well do you know God’s heart & what He

loves, wants & cares about? How much do you think about molding your

heart & desires to His?

Q: Read Matthew 20:17-23. How is this an example of completely missing the

point because they were thinking of self instead of service?

Connect with Others (IN)…

Q: Read Matthew 20:25-28. Jesus says His followers are called to be different

from the rest of the world. What are some examples of this verse that we

can/should see within the Church, both globally & locally?

Connect with the World (OUT)…

Q: Whare some specific needs of the world around you (family, friends,

neighbors, co-workers, classmates, community, world) & how can you serve

in those situations?
