Week 5: What's the Big Idea? -Mark 7:24-30

This week we are going keep asking questions. Our questions are going to look at what is the core message of the passage. Or another way to put it, what is the big idea? After reading the days session...

1. Write out one or two key sentences (or verses). Write them word for word and as you write consider what the words mean.

2, What phrase or words stand out?

3. Why do you think they matter and how does it connect to life today?

Mark 7:24-30The Message (MSG)

24-26 From there Jesus set out for the vicinity of Tyre. He entered a house there where he didn’t think he would be found, but he couldn’t escape notice. He was barely inside when a woman who had a disturbed daughter heard where he was. She came and knelt at his feet, begging for help. The woman was Greek, Syro-Phoenician by birth. She asked him to cure her daughter.
27 He said, “Stand in line and take your turn. The children get fed first. If there’s any left over, the dogs get it.”
28 She said, “Of course, Master. But don’t dogs under the table get scraps dropped by the children?”
29-30 Jesus was impressed. “You’re right! On your way! Your daughter is no longer disturbed. The demonic affliction is gone.” She went home and found her daughter relaxed on the bed, the torment gone for good.
