Our current teaching series takes us into Mark’s Gospel to meet Jesus.  In the coming months consider reading and listening to Mark’s Gospel multiple times - in the course of your reading and listening what does God highlight to you?

​

Questions for Life Groups and for personal reflection this week:

 

1.Fruitfulness in our lives can be robbed by problems or persecutions (v16-17). How can we deal with these things when they come to avoid our spiritual roots being dug up or destroyed?

​

2.Fruitfulness in our lives can be robbed by the worries, the lure of wealth and desire for other things (v17-19). What might those things be in your life? How can we avoid these distractions/temptations and stay focussed?

​

3.How can we invest in our spiritual lives/spiritual growth so that we can become more fruitful? How much of this is God’s work and how much of it is our responsibility? How do we do this in the context of church family/fellowship?
