I Surrender All
Mark 10:17-22
Big Truth: Things don’t change because Jesus is in the __; things change because Jesus has become the __.
What hinders people from fully following Jesus? What gets in the way of deep surrender?
- We emphasize __ over truly __ Jesus. (vv. 17-18)
- We take __ in what we’re NOT instead of being __ over what we COULD BE. (vv. 19-20)
- We try to follow Jesus while clinging to greater __. (vv. 21-22)
Jesus was not saying that “giving away everything” is the __ of eternal life.
The call is not to poverty but to __. And discipleship is costly.
Important Question: “Is there __ or __ I want more than Jesus?”
