This Set’s Big Idea
Jesus calls His disciples to listen carefully, pray dependently, treasure God above possessions, trust the Father instead of worrying, and live ready for His return.
As you read, watch how Jesus commends Mary’s attention to His word, teaches His followers to pray, warns against greed, comforts anxious hearts, and calls servants to be faithful and ready.
These notes correspond with Set 14 readings in The Gospels Discipleship Journal. First, use MTSM’s Pray, Read, Ask, and Pray method to study the passage devotionally. After you finish, use these notes to deepen your understanding if you’d like.
This set focuses on the everyday posture of a disciple. Mary sits at Jesus’ feet and chooses what matters most. Jesus teaches His disciples to pray with dependence and persistence. He warns against greed through the parable of the rich fool and reminds His followers that life is more than possessions.
As you read Luke 10–12, pay attention to how Jesus redirects anxious, distracted, and divided hearts. He calls His people to seek God’s kingdom, trust the Father’s care, hold possessions loosely, and live as faithful servants who are ready for the Master’s return.
