- Is Jesus’ command to this man universal in scope? (Does Jesus direct everyone who wants to follow him to sell everything?)
- What does it mean to follow Jesus?
- What might it cost you to follow Jesus?
- What does Jesus promise his followers?
- In what ways has Jesus kept his promise to Christians that you know?
