Our next lesson is titled: "Self-Esteem and Taking Up the Cross" Matthew 10:29-31, by Katie Rose-DeLaet.
Some questions for consideration:
1. This scripture is just one example of Jesus ascribing value to the lowest in society. What are some other times that he uplifts the humble?
2. What are some social status symbols that are at odds with Christ's mission?
3. In place of the traditional status symbols, what achievements might Christ tell us to embrace as markers of success?
4. How can we build a community of faith that rejects the false markers of status in favor of God's standards?
We will meet again in the comfort of your own home or your own churches or possibly a coffee shop to share an hour together across the miles of Mid-America.
