A Study on Mark 4:21-34 based on the sermon The Kingdom of God

  1. Discuss your understanding of the reasons why Jesus began to speak in parables?
  2. Read vs 21-25        In this parable how do you understand the imagery of the lamp and what does this mean for Christians today?
  3. Why is it important for us to “consider carefully what we hear”? What are the consequences of doing or not doing this?
  4. Read vs 26-29        Once the seed (God’s word) has been sown, is that the end of our responsibility? If not, what else can we do to enable the seed to bear fruit?
  5. Read vs 30-34        Consider the size of the church when these words were spoken and how far it has spread in the following centuries.
  6. Discuss what you consider are the greatest threats to church growth today?

A study based on Mark 3:1-15 and based on this sermon: Stretch Out In Faith

  1. What was it about Jesus that really annoyed the Pharisees? Who were the Herodians and why would they be an unlikely ally for the Pharisees?
  2. What did Jesus ask the man with the crippled hand to do? What must we learn from this?
  3. In the sermon we spoke a lot about how we might have surplus baggage.  What was meant by surplus baggage and how might it drag us down? How can we help each other deal with it?
  4. Discuss whether we have the authority to drive out demons…
  5. Why is it important for disciples to be willing to leave everything and spend time with Jesus? How might this be a challenge for us?
