Plot Twist
Sermon: Am I Winning?
Luke 18:9-14
Sermon Summary
The Big Idea of this study is to understand how we view ourselves.
A lot of people think the object in life is to win, whatever that looks like. A well-known adage we often hear states, “whoever has the most toys wins.” A few years ago, there was a leader who promised the voters that if he was elected, there would be so much winning they would get bored of winning. It’s important for a lot of people to win and feel like they’re winning.
What does it really look like to win? What should winning feel like?
This week, we look at another story Jesus tells of two characters; one would have been highly respected in the community and the other one hated. The Plot Twist shows us who Jesus was actually trying to change and how this person was supposed to think. Jesus was challenging the crowd about how they think of others and what it looks like to really win.
Questions for Discussion:
1. Rank yourself on a scale from 1 – 10 on how competitive you are during sports or board games. How does this ranking bleed into your everyday life?
2. What ways have you seen people want to win in life?
3. Reread Luke 18:9-14. What stands out to you? Is there anything you have a tough time understanding? What point do you think that Jesus was trying to make to the crowd that day?
4. What makes it hard to see pride in ourselves?
5. If Jesus wants his followers to be humble, what does that look like? What does it look like to “not look down on others”? How can we live that out this week?
