Initiative

Mark 1:21

  • Jesus was a self-starter
  • How many great plans fail / talents wasted because of a lack of initiative.
  • What are you pursuing most?

Authority

Mark 1:22-28

  • Jesus allowed people decide for themselves whether they would obey him or not.
  • Not authority structures can be chaotic and can be full of crippling bad attitudes and unresolved conflicts
  • We can allow the misuse of authority by others to hinder or eliminate our proper use of it
