These are the questions that we'll be working through together in this week's Community Group. We'll be meeting at the Caylor's house--27 Lippizan, Saint Peters. Community Group begins at 6:25, and ends at 8:00. Childcare is provided--we'll see you there!

Explore (Digging in to understand the passage)

When Joseph asked for Jesus' body, what was he risking from other council members? From Pilate?
Why was Pilate surprised that Jesus had already died?
Mark lists two witnesses to Jesus' burial—Mary Magdalene and Mary, the Mother of Joses. What is unusual about this?
What was the women’s biggest concern when they went to the tomb?
Why were they even more terrified when they saw the young man sitting in the tomb?
Do you think the women believed the man's message? Why or why not?

Connect (Applying the passage to our lives)

What risks have you taken because of your faith in Jesus?
Who or what convinced you of the truth of Jesus' resurrection?
Where is your spiritual life focused right now: Good Friday, Easter, or the Saturday between?

I look forward to seeing everyone there! Have a blessed holy week!
