Take It With You!
During this series please consider reading through the given texts in Luke daily with your family or on your own. After each sermon, questions will be provided to guide your reading and prayer time. God's blessings in your study!
1. In Luke 4:43 Jesus says that He must go into many places to preach the Gospel. What are some places you believe Christ might be calling you to talk about the Good News of what He has done for the world?
2. Notice how Jesus not only talks about His mission in the synagogue (Luke 4:44) but also by the sea in a place of business (Luke 5:1). Why is it so easy for us to leave our talk of Jesus at church? How might you bring up the Good News with people at your work or school?
3. What do you think it means to be fishers of men? What other analogy can you think of in our modern terms that could be used to describe the bringing of many people into the kingdom?
4. Notice that the Kingdom is spread through the Word Jesus spoke (Luke 4:43). If the Kingdom is spread through speaking the Word, how can you take part in spreading that Kingdom?
