Reflective Questions

2 Corinthians 3: Look at v. 4-6. How has God made you competent to minister to Him and others? Do you feel competent?
Judges 17-18: “In those days Israel had no king.” Why do you think the author included this commentary in the middle of this story? What events might have been different with a king in place? What does that tell you about leadership?
Psalm 49: Compare the psalmist’s assessment in v. 7-9 that no one can redeem or ransom a life with Mark 10:45 and 1 Peter 1:18-19.
