Jesus' Mission (And Ours)

Luke 19:1-10; John 20:21-22

Discussion Questions:
1. Are you intentionally building a relationship non-Christian friends, neighbors, etc.? If not, why not? If so, who? (Take time to tell stories and pray for one another. Make a list and continue to pray for one another in your evangelism efforts.)
2. Why is evangelism so scary?
3. In Matthew 9:13 Jesus says, “I’m here to invite outsiders; not coddle insiders” (The Message). Discuss this statement. What does Jesus mean? What are the implications for our church? How could we become more hospitable to outsiders? (WARNING: don’t use this discussion to complain
but to repent!!!!)
