Mark 6:35 -44
Why does Jesus keep this large crowd around until such a late hour in such a remote place?
Imagine you were one of the people in this crowd. As the hour draws late how are you feeling? What are you thinking about?
Compare and contrast Jesus’ plan for dealing with the situation with the one that his disciples had come up with.
Which plan makes more rational sense in dealing with the situation?
Why is Jesus insisting upon doing things in such an irrational sort of way?
Why did the disciples bring the sardines back as well when Jesus just asked for a bread inventory?
Imagine you are one of these disciples as you are preparing for feeding time. What is going through your mind as you usher the people into their seats?
Why does Jesus have people sit down in groups of 50 or 100? Why is that detail included in the story?
When do you think the disciples actually noticed a miracle was occurring? Did the crowd ever know this was miraculous?
Why does Jesus pray a pray of thanksgiving for the bread before distributing it?
What does it show us about Jesus that he is able to feed 15,000+ with so few resources?
Why is it significant that there were 12 basketfuls of leftovers?
Describe the relationship between Jesus and his disciples in this passage.
What is something that God is calling you to do tonight that is significantly beyond the scope of your resources?
What steps can you take to demonstrate that you are actually choosing to trust him?
What are some amazing ways that God has provided for you in your life?
What can you do to express thanksgiving to him this week?
