Pitfalls

Luke 12 begins with a sober warning from the Master, ‘Beware of hypocrisy.’ Don’t be a calloused bystander. Allow the penetrating questions to his disciples to probe and challenge you. Fear is the perennial pitfall for many of us. It was then; it is today. Read this again and again today. Fear not, little flock. By Christ we can climb out of those pitfalls.

Last night at the March Member Meeting we began a season of prayer for deacon nominations. Daily prayer requests will be posted to our Facebook prayer group. You can download Week One.

Use these questions to read, reflect, and live out Luke 12 this week:

Luke 12v1-7
How are ‘hypocrisy’ and ‘fear’ connected? What’s the remedy?

Luke 12v8-12
How can we bold about our relationship with Jesus?

Luke 12v13-21
What is the point of the parable for our lives today?

Luke 12v22-34
What does Jesus urge his disciples to do instead of worrying?

Luke 12v35-48
What is the difference between watchfulness & worry?

Luke 12v49-53
What is on Jesus’ mind in verse 50?

Luke 12v54-59
How can we grow in spiritual discernment?

The Small Groups will study Luke 11 beginning March 25.
