I Know a GuySample

We have listened to Jesus’ powerful words in one of his most well-known teachings. Next, we will read from the gospel of Mark and observe Jesus as he interacts with various people.
Read today’s scripture and use your imagination to step into each scene. Notice and imagine the details of what you see, what you hear, even what you might smell or taste, and what emotions are present.
Read Mark 8:22-38 and Mark 9:1.
- What do you notice about Jesus?
- What do you notice about how people interact with Jesus?
Peter’s interaction with Jesus in these verses is interesting. He understands that Jesus is the Messiah, the one God promised, but he doesn’t understand when Jesus describes his imminent suffering and rejection. Peter doesn’t see or understand Jesus completely. Can you relate?
Prayer: What do you want to say to Jesus?
