David and Michael walk through John 2:1-11 to help you lead meaningful discussions about the text.

Questions from the Conversation

Narrative Questions:

In narrative, we’re always asking these 3 simple questions to get to the big idea.

• What happened? (summary & key points)
• Why here? (how it fits in John’s Gospel)
• What does the author want us to know/feel/do? 

Supplemental Questions:

• What did Jesus mean when he said, “My hour has not yet come”?
• What is significant about the wedding metaphor?
• In what way does this sign glorify Jesus? What are we supposed to know about Jesus as a result of this sign?

Big Idea:

Jesus is all we need → Links to messianic provision of wine and implication of the sign. 

Application:

• How do we know if we’re living in a way that we really believe Jesus is all we need? (Desperate/Dependent)
• When was a time in the last month that you were desperate and dependent on Jesus?
• What would it look like to be desperate and dependent on Jesus every day? What rhythms do you need in your life to consistently return to a posture of desperate dependence?
