Sabbath, Study, Serve 

Taking the Sermon Into Our Week 

Scripture of the Week: Mark 8: 27-9:8

From the Sermon:

Jesus asks a question, “Who do __________ say that I am?”

But then Jesus turned the question from what they _______ to what they __________.

Jesus is the ___________ sent by God to be a fulfillment of the convent promise made to Israel.

Peter got the correct ________ to who Jesus is, but he didn’t ___________ what it meant to be called the Messiah.

Peter shows us in this piece of scripture that we can both be ______ and ______ at the exact same time.

Reflection Questions:

How do we sometimes miss the point, as Peter did?

What makes us willing to follow Jesus?

Prayer:

Lord, forgive us for the times that we have missed the point. The times that we have made following you conditional on our expectations and understanding. Free us, O Lord, to follow you no matter what. Amen.
