The Vineyard- October 16, 2011

The Vineyard
I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. – John 15:5

Mark 6:1-13
-          The people in Jesus’ hometown refused to believe in Him, all because of where he came from (ironic isn’t it), and what family He was a member of.  Do you ever judge people not based on who they are, but where they come from or who they are related to?
-          Jesus instructs His disciples not to rely on material possessions to fulfill their mission, but rather to trust in God.  Do you ever trust more in what God has given you, than you do in God?

Matthew 6:1-8, 16-18
-          If someone needed help, but there was no chance of anyone seeing you, would you help them? 
-          It’s possible to do the right thing for the wrong reason.  What is your motivation for doing good works?  Is it to be seen, or is it because it’s the right thing to do?  Are you as willing to do the right thing, even when no one is watching?
