[Sunday] Absurd - Kingdom Way - Matthew 27
The Magi visiting the Holy Family is absurd. A Roman Governor's wife defending Jesus? Absurd. Most absurd? Jesus taking our cries of "Crucify!" to save us all. Matthew Chapter 27
Questions for the Week: Kingdom Way: Absurd
Where do you see examples of absurd or illogical behavior driven by fear, self-interest, or the rejection of truth in our world today?
Read Matthew 27:11-31. In what ways might we, individually or collectively, be choosing a "Barabbas" over Jesus in our lives or society? What does that look like practically?
Can you think of examples where people, even with negative intentions, inadvertently speak or reveal a deeper truth?
The crowd had a choice between Jesus and Barabbas. What "kings" or priorities do we often choose to follow in our lives, and what are the consequences?
