We gather on the Twenty-first Sunday after Pentecost and discuss the Gospel story from Mark’s Gospel account…a story of a faithful, wealthy man who seeks advice from Jesus. The man’s question is one that is likely very familiar to all of us: what must I do to go to heaven? Jesus answers the man with a challenging path into the future (no surprise there!) and then teaches us all an eternal truth - we are all dependent on the love and grace of God in all things. We will discuss the various participants in this story (Jesus, the man who seeks advice, and the disciples) and reflect how the lessons presented are meant to change our lives.
For continuing study, reflect on these questions (found in the study guide below):
