Sermon Text: Mark 7

Reflection Questions:

  1. Where, or upon what, do you focus your strongest desires?  What are you infatuated with?  What do you constantly think about?  Write down 5 specific ways this obsession is defining and dominating your life?
  2. What are your “functional saviors?” (i.e. where do you go to get your validation
    cravings
    met?).
  3. Why do you avoid honest self-examination?  What’s one of the scariest things you’ve found to be true about yourself?
  4. Have you come to a place in your life where you honestly despair of who you are, and you’re ready to desperately cry out to God to save you?
