Prison and Proclamation and Invitation | After Words


The Gospel of Mark

Sunday at [theBridge] we thought together about the imprisonment of John the Baptizer – the prophet who paved the way for Jesus by speaking truth to power. Further, we examined Jesus’ proclamation of the Kingdom and calling of the first four disciples.

What are some “whens” or “afters” in your life?

Are there people you find inspiring who have “spoken truth to power”? How was their message received? How was what followed them dependent upon their work?

Are there times in your life that seemed to
operate on a different timetable?

How could Jesus’ proclamation of the Kingdom be most effectively communicated (kerusso-ed) in your family, neighborhood, company, school, etc.? Are there ways you could further kerusso the presence of God in those places?

How does knowing that Jesus’ Kingdom is purposely composed not of religious elites but “regular folks like us” help you in thinking about kerusso-ing the good news of God’s Kingdom?
