Mark 8:27-9:1 | August 19, 2018 | Hanley Liu

Personal Application Questions:

1) The Jews of Jesus’ day expected a Messiah who would bring them the comforts that come with worldly power (political, social, or economical)?

How do we sometimes expect Jesus to do the same for us?

2) How does the world tempt us to live the self-centered life?

3) Why does forgiveness entail suffering? How is modeling the unconditional forgiveness of Christ an example of taking up our cross?
