Discussion Questions
1. In which areas of your life do you think sin blinds you? (If you're not sure ask your spouse or a close friend) 2. In Matthew 20:30 & 31 the blind men call out to the Son of David. What is the significance of this (read 2 Samuel 7)? 3. Our world tells us that we're not "blind," and that we're good. Like the crowds, when the world tries to silence us, what should be our response? 4. In this passage we see that God isn't too busy for the blind men. With what thing - this week - do you need to trust that God isn't too buys for you?
