If you were not with us on Sunday you can listen to this sermon here.
Jn 1:43-51
1. Share with the group a time when you made a quick judgment about someone or something and then came to change it. What do you think caused you to jump to your first conclusion?
2. How easy (or difficult) is it for you to believe based on someone's words or testimony? To what extent are you someone who needs to see it for yourself? experience it for yourself?
3. Do you think your faith would be stronger if you could see Jesus 'in the flesh?'
4. Why do you suppose it would be easier to follow a physical Jesus? How might you take that 'thing' and make it more present in your relationship with Jesus now?
5. What do you imagine would be harder about following Jesus 'then;' ie: 'in the flesh?'
6. Mtr. Mary noted that believing in Jesus means seeing with the eyes of faith. How well are you doing at seeing with the eyes of faith? To what extent do you still see with the eyes of the world?
7. Does your life reflect the belief that Jesus is just as present today as he was 2,000 years ago? How might you witness to this more?
