30 Days In The Gospel Of Mark

DAY 24 OF 30

Thought:

Jesus celebrated Passover with His disciples before He was betrayed. It was probably very sad for Jesus to eat this meal with His disciples knowing one of them was about to betray Him. Christians still remember and celebrate this meal in the ceremony known as the Lord’s Supper. There are several different names for the Lord’s Supper; some people call it communion and some people call it the Eucharist. The Lord’s Supper is a way for us to remember and celebrate Jesus’ sacrifice for us at the cross. Our tradition all began with Jesus’ last meal.

1. What unusual instructions did Jesus give His disciples about Passover?

2. Did the disciples find things as Jesus had said? What do you think this felt like?

3. How do you think you would feel hearing that one of your close friends—one of the 12 disciples—was going to betray Jesus?

4. What did the disciples do when they finished their meal?

Engage:

We still observe what Jesus told us about in today’s passage when we take part in the Lord’s Supper (also known as communion or the Eucharist). How does your church celebrate the Lord’s Supper?

Deeper Waters:

Read about Paul’s instructions to the Corinthians regarding their Lord’s Supper in 1 Corinthians 11:17-34. How does Paul clarify how Jesus-followers should practice the Lord’s Supper? Note that the Lord’s Supper is good but can be celebrated incorrectly and selfishly. In the church of Corinth, the rich would eat the entire meal (in the days of the early church, the Lord’s Supper/communion/the Eucharist was a special meal the church had together) before the poor were able to get there. This is a bad way to celebrate the Lord’s Supper because it goes against Jesus’ love and care for the poor. It is selfish and mean.
