7th Religion - Matthew 13 Discussion Questions due Thursday (2/28)

1. What parable has made the biggest impact on your life (it may be one from Matthew 13, but it might be another one like the Good Samaritan, The Prodigal Son, or any other parable Jesus taught)?
2. What things would be worth “selling everything you own” like the person who bought the treasure in the field?  What are the really important things that are like a very fine pearl?
3. Jesus was honored by many people, but not the people in His hometown that he grew up with.  It might be like a brother or sister winning a big award.  How would it be hard or easy for you to have your brother or sister win a big award?

2. Jesus was gentle with people who needed it – “a bruised reed he will not break, and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out.”  When has Jesus been gentle with you?
3. Jesus was stern with people who needed it – “You brood of vipers, how can you who are evil say anything good?”  When has Jesus been stern with you?
