Monk Habits for the Rest of Us- An Introduction

In this sermon, Mark introduces us to our series "40 Days of Prayer- Monk Habits for the Rest of Us." In this sermon, Mark shares about a way to approach prayer, the monastic solution, and the foundational calling for followers of Jesus. www.thevineaustin.org/monkhabits Discussion Questions- 1. This week, we have two practices from the Monk Habits workbook. An analysis of your experience in prayer, and praying through the Lord’s Prayer. How would you answer the question- where did you learn to pray? 2. What was your experience of praying through the Lord’s Prayer? 3. When you think back to the sermon, what stood out to you- either as encouraging, curious or confusing? 4. Consider how Mark 10 ends and transitions to Mark 11. Read Mark 10:38-42 and then Mark 11:1-4. Why do you think these stories are next to one another? 5. When you consider the Lord’s Prayer, what do you notice about the order and how it is structured? 6. Finish your time sharing what you hope takes place through these 40 days together. You can pray for one another that Christ might meet your desires with grace.
