Got the Good Shepherd? (Mark 6:30-56)

41. Mark

By way of introduction: What do we, or our society, look for to be our shepherds in life?

Read Mark 6:30-56

1.      In that desolate place (verses 30–44) we see that the good shepherd satisfies. If we have Jesus as our good shepherd, how does he satisfy us?

 

2.      As Jesus walks on water in this next scene, what is he revealing to us for our lives today?

 

3.      When they come to Gennesaret, Jesus makes many well (6:56). The word used for make well is the word ‘save’.

 

a.      How can we understand what this means for us today through the cross and resurrection?

 

b.     What will it mean for our lives now, our prayers now?

 

4.      What changes in our life if we trust in Jesus particularly as our Good Shepherd?

Pray for one another, that we would be a church that in honesty brings our fears to Jesus and says amen in faith.
