READ Mark 1:35-37
2- Jesus started His day with prayer. Why do you think He did that?
3- Despite all the demands of the day that Jesus knew were coming (v.36-37), He still got up early to pray. What does that tell you about one of the benefits of prayer?
4- He also got away and was by Himself in order to pray. Why do you think He did that?
5- What do you think your purpose in life is? Why do you think that?
READ Mark 1:38
6- Prayer fueled Jesus' purpose. Does prayer shape the purpose of your life or does your own purpose shape your prayer life? What do you think the difference is between the two?
7- In what way do you think prayer could shape your daily duties and the purpose behind them?
8- One of Jesus' purposes in coming was to preach. He was "others" focused. As followers of Jesus how can we emulate that same mindset in our lives?
READ Mark 1:39
9- After praying about it and talking about it, Jesus went and did it. What are some things you've been praying about or talking about that you need to put into action?
10- How can the rest of the group hold you accountable to the things we talked about?
