Seeing Jesus in the Gospel of MarkSýnishorn
JESUS IS ENOUGH
Look Closely:
- It hasn’t been that long since Jesus fed 5,000 with only five loaves and two fish (Mark 6:37-44), so why do you think the disciples seemed to doubt that Jesus was enough to feed 4,000? This failure of the disciples is easy to judge but also easy to repeat in our own lives!
- Imagine yourself as one of the people in that crowd of more than 4,000. Your stomach is growling. Could you believe Jesus would have enough to feed all of you? Why or why not?
- In both these instances of multiplying food, Jesus asked the disciples first to locate whatever food they could find and give it to Him. Why do you think He did that? If you were one of the disciples, how would you feel when you looked at your small resources?

About this Plan
In a world of hostility, corruption, and confusion, a regular guy named Mark wrote his gospel to boldly proclaim that Jesus is THE good news. Mark vividly tells his story with urgency and purpose, giving all of us a front-row seat to the teachings, miracles, discipleship, and life of Jesus. This plan puts you in the story so that you can observe, ask questions, and learn alongside the disciples.
