Alan Ward looks at this short passage from Mark 10, and looks at strongholds in our lives while asking if we are too busy, if we have grown too comfortable, and if our confidence has been misplaced.

Bible base: Mark 10:46-52

Cell group questions

* Why do you think the disciples rebuked Bartimaeus?

* What prevents us from calling others: time, comfort, confidence, or something else?

* Is there a Bartimaeus in your life that you know you need to ‘call’, or do you need to ask Jesus to show you?

Application

Spend some time praying for each other. Ask God to show you who you need to call to follow him.
