2 Digest

Answer from what the passage actually says — stay in the text.

1. What does this passage show me about God?

   • What three impossible situations does Jesus meet in this chapter, and what does each person do to reach him?

2. What does it show me about people — and about myself?

   • Jesus tells the healed man, 'Go home to your own people and tell them.' Why might home be the hardest — and most important — place to testify?

3. What will I obey this week? (a concrete step, with a day)

   • Jairus had to keep believing between the message of death and the miracle. Where do you need to 'only believe' and keep walking this week?

4. Who will I tell?

   • The man told his story throughout the Ten Towns and 'all the people were amazed.' What has the Lord done for you, and who will you tell?

3 Grow

Growth is God's part, not yours. Do the cycle faithfully and trust Him to give the growth (1 Corinthians 3:6–7).
