From Google AI Overview
On Faith (Verses 5-6)
1. The disciples asked Jesus to "increase our faith." What does this request reveal about their understanding of faith?
2. Jesus used the mustard seed and mulberry tree analogy. What does it mean for faith to be the size of a mustard seed?
3. Does Jesus mean that having a small amount of faith allows us to do anything, or is he pointing to something else?
4. How can we discern between having a "packet" of faith to spend on God and a living, growing faith that genuinely trusts God?
On Service and Humility (Verses 7-10)
1. In the parable about the master and the slave, what does it mean to be a "worthless slave"?
2. Why would the master not say "thank you" to the slave for doing what was commanded?
3. What is the primary duty of a faithful follower of Jesus, according to this passage?
4. Can you think of an example where a person did something good without expecting a "thank you"? What motivated them?
Connecting to Our Lives
1. The passage says that when we have done "all that we were ordered to do," we should say, "We are worthless slaves." How can this teaching impact our attitude toward serving God and others?
2. What does it mean to have a "long obedience" in the direction of God's kingdom?
3. How can we apply Jesus' teaching about forgiveness to our relationships with others today, especially when they repeatedly offend us?
4. How does the concept of being a faithful servant change the way we view rewards and merit in our relationship with God?
