HELP NEEDED
Next Sunday after the Connection Luncheon, we need some able-bodied people to help move pews in the Sanctuary to make space for the equipment needed as they work on the lighting. The more people, the better! If you could set aside some time to help us next Sunday afternoon it would be greatly appreciated.

Jesus’ Family
(Mark 3:20-35; John 7:1-5 NLT)
Yearly Theme: “Patience is…”
Series Title: “Family Dynamics”

(Mark 3:20-35; John 7:1-5 NLT)
Yearly Theme: “Patience is…”
Series Title: “Family Dynamics”
October 30th, 2022
Key Point: "An unwillingness to trust one another within families breeds suspicion and judgment which leads to embarrassment and rejection."
- Rejection by family hurts.
- Trusting isn't easy.
- Communication is key.
- Jesus doesn't close the door.
Who criticized Jesus’ ministry and how? How did combat the criticism? How can division destroy a house or kingdom?
What did Jesus’ family expect when they arrived and sent word to him? How did Jesus respond? What did Jesus say to those seated around him?
Why did Jesus’ brothers suggest He go to Jerusalem? Do you think it was a kind of challenge?
Why did Jesus stay in Galilee and avoid Jerusalem? What is the balance between taking precautions to protect yourself and trusting yourself into God's care?
Why were people slow to believe in Jesus at this stage of his ministry?
JOURNAL
Can you remember a time when you faced opposition from family members, or close friends because of your faith? How did you handle it? What advice would you give new believers in Christ who face opposition from family members? Maybe you are facing a situation right now that feels like persecution. Are there any burdens you can share with your group?

APPLICATION
Jesus said, “Do not judge by appearances, but judge with right judgment.”
If you’re human, this is something that must be regularly confessed and repented of. What kind of superficial judgments are you most likely to make of people? Is there a type of person whom you may dismiss because of a certain characteristic? Take time this week to ask God to allow you to live what Jesus calls us to do and see people with His eyes instead of our prejudices.
