Dinner With the King [Luke 7:36-50]

Dinner With the King [Luke 7:36-50]

Sermon Discussion Questions

Eric began the sermon by talking about just how incredibly helpful and necessary bugs are. Bee's pollination alone is worth roughly $14.6 Billion. Sometimes we think we lump something or someone into a category without actually knowing who or what they are, we do this with bugs, how do we do the same thing with Jesus? 

When the woman came to Jesus, washed his feet, and wiped them with her tears, was this an act to earn forgiveness or thankfulness? 

The woman was quite bold in her response to Jesus, her actions were definitely beyond the social norm, does this passage make us uncomfortable? 

What are some expressions of thankfulness that make you uncomfortable? What are expressions of thankfulness that are acceptable and are not acceptable in your own social circle? 

Eric gave us all a challenge, asking if we have a tendency to minimize or temper our thankful responses to Jesus. Since we have been captured by Jesus grace, how do we use our gifts to express thankfulness to him?
