The One Thing: Portrait of Christ - Gentle and Humble
Scripture: Matthew 11:20-30
Preacher: Rev Miranda Valentini
DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
KNOW CHRIST AS KING
K1 In Matthew 11:2–6, John the Baptist questions whether Jesus is truly the Messiah. What does Jesus’ response reveal about His identity and mission as King?
K2 Verses 28–30 describe Jesus as “gentle and humble in heart.” How does this kingship differ from the way earthly rulers often exercise authority?
GROW IN GROUPS G1 In verses 16–19, Jesus addresses the generation’s critical spirit. How can we, as a group, guard against that kind of attitude toward each other and toward God’s work?
G2 Jesus invites the weary to come to Him for rest (v. 28). How can we practically help each other experience this rest in our spiritual communities?
SHOW UP AND SERVE
S1 In verses 20–24, Jesus warns cities that saw His works but did not repent. How does recognizing Jesus as the gentle and humble King motivate us to take action in serving others?
S2 How can we embody Christ’s gentleness and humility in our own service—especially when dealing with people who are skeptical, hurting, or resistant to the gospel?
