The Life Week 5 "Tough to Swallow?"

SCRIPTURES FROM SUNDAY:

John 6

REFLECT/DISCUSS:

Q: In this chapter we’re told that Jesus decided to test His followers’ faith.  Do you think God has ever tested you?  How?

Q: How do you think Jesus felt about His disciples’ lack of faith?  How do you think Jesus feels/responds when we let Him down?

Q: Jesus tells the crowds the truth about themselves- they’re only seeking Him because they want another free meal.  What has Jesus been honest with you about lately?  Did you like hearing that?

Q: Even though the crowd initially came to see miracles or eat free food, Jesus calls them to more.  What initially brought you to Jesus?  Has Jesus called you to move beyond that?

Q: Jesus describes himself as the “source of life” (light, bread, water, etc.) and offers us His life to sustain us.  Does this fit your picture of your relationship with Jesus?  If not, how would you describe it?

FOR NEXT WEEK:
John 7 & 8:12-59
