Ministry to Youth

Emmaus’ youth ministry does not take the place of our regular Sunday worship service. We believe that our young people are a valuable and significant part of the congregation, and therefore, should regularly attend our Sunday worship services where they will learn from the teaching of the scriptures, worship, and interact with the adults of Emmaus.

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS

Discussion Questions: Luke 19:1-10
posted on Sunday, March 23rd by Joe

  1. Think of the rich young ruler of Luke 18:18-23, the blind beggar of Luke 18:35-43, and Zacchaeus the chief tax collector of Luke 19:1-10. Which of these would the Jews of Jesus’ day expect to have life eternal? Which of these did? Why?
  2. What does the story of Zacchaeus have to do with Jesus’ remark, “For it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God… What is impossible with man is possible with God.” (Luke 18:25–27)
  3. What matters more, that Zacchaeus saw Jesus, or that Jesus fixed his eyes on Zacchaeus? Why?
  4. When Jesus called Zacchaeus to himself, “he hurried and came down and received [Jesus] joyfully” (Luke 19:6) and committed to give half his goods to the poor. Contrast this with the response of the rich young ruler of Luke 18:35-43. 
  5. What does it mean that the “Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.” (Luke 19:10)

Discussion Questions: Luke 18:35-43
posted on Sunday, March 16th by Joe

  1. The Scriptures teach that we are spiritually blind because of sin (see Ephesians 4:17–19). What is it that we are unable to see?
  2.  Christ healed a man of his physical blindness. What spiritual truth does this illustrate?
  3. How does Christ heal our blindness in regeneration? What does he enable us to see?
  4. How does this spiritual enlightenment contribute to our sanctification? 
  5. How will this enlightenment culminate in glorification?
  6. How should those who are spiritually blind or ignorant of the things of God pray? What should they do?
