Three great questions to ponder

After you read Mark 2:1-12, think about these questions:

With regard to the paralytic’s friends:

With regard to the crowd:

bq. In what ways do you hope to witness or observe Jesus’ power?

bq.. The real world and its fate have gone unrecognized on the academic curriculum.
