Mark 14:1-11

March 6, 2022

I. The Crowd

II. Responding to the Crowd

III. Worshiping in the midst of the Crowd

1. We should not allow the crowd to keep us from worship

2. When we worship we should give our best

3. Our worship shows that we love and trust God

FAITH SHEET QUESTIONS:

1. What was the costliest offering you have ever made to Jesus?

2. What is the value of honoring Jesus in public? How do we avoid doing so with wrong motives?

3. Mary did not care about social taboos or personal embarrassment when she worshiped Jesus. How can we follow her example today?

4. What is the balance between practical, responsible stewardship and radical, extravagant giving? How do we avoid using the former as an excuse to escape the latter?

5. Did Jesus dismiss His followers from taking care of the poor? What is the biblical evidence for your answer?

6. In Luke 14:27–28 Jesus says a person should “calculate the cost” of becoming a disciple. Here we learn that true love never calculates the cost. How do these two lessons fit together?

7. In what ways do some people today look for what they can get for Jesus? How do people try to profit from going to church?
