SIGNS AND WONDERS
Look Closely:
- What do these three incredible miracles reveal about Jesus’ power and authority?
- Jesus sails to the country of the Gerasenes, originally a territory of Israel, though much of the population at this time were Gentiles. Imagine you’re the demon-possessed man. How would you describe your day? What story would you have told in the days that followed?
- Sailing back across the lake, Jesus encounters a large crowd, and among them, two very different people with very different needs. How does Jesus approach each need? What do you learn about faith from the different people in the story?
- What do you learn about Jesus from today’s reading?
Bonus: Take a look at maps of Israel and the area surrounding the Sea of Galilee in Jesus’ time and then compare them to a map of ancient Israel and the twelve tribes’ allotted land.

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.
