Discussion Questions:
Have you ever invested yourself in prayer and/or giving on behalf of persecuted Christians? If this facet of serving Jesus is compelling to you, how will you get started this week?
Do you ever find yourself comparing your "Christian status" with others? Jesus spoke with Peter after his resurrection, foreshadowing Peter's martyrdom and telling him not to compare himself with John. How does Jesus' command, "You, follow me," speak into your life?
