people worship God, grow spiritually, serve others, and reach
their communities and the world with the message and love of
Jesus Christ.

Discussion
Starters
- Can
you remember a time when you were truly embarassed? Are you brave enough to
share your story?
- What is an assumption? Why are assumptions problematic? What
assumptions are made about you personally?
- What assumptions are made about Jesus? How do we respond
to them?
- Who do
people say Jesus was? In Peter's mind in this passage, what did being a Messiah
mean?
- How did the
disciples react to Jesus when He predicted His suffering and death?
- Why did Jesus have to suffer
and die?
- What does
walking the way of the cross mean? Why are we so averse to embracing the way of
the cross?
- Can you
be a part-time disciple? Can you just pick those parts of discipleship you like
and avoid the others?
- Why are we so slow to understand that the real treasures in this
universe are not found in our bank accounts or come from our own
effort?
- What does it
mean to die to self? How can we get more effective at picking up our
crosses?
