Reflection Questions:

3. What motivates you to protect the vulnerable? Can you share an experience of protecting the vulnerable that was meaningful to you?

4. What are Biblical examples of Jesus protecting the vulnerable?

5. Do you find that protecting the vulnerable comes to you naturally? Why or Why not? What things make it challenging for you?

6. Brian's focal point was that Jesus sought to bring justice to earth by protecting the vulnerable. Do you agree or disagree? Why?

7. Read Matthew 25:31-46. What differences do you see between how the sheep and the goats are described in the parable?

8. Are you naturally bent more like the sheep or the goats? What would it take in your life to serve more like the sheep than the goats?

9 What would the church look like if everyone took the sheeps posture of protecting the vulnerable or helping those in need?

10. Brian referenced the Good Samaritan (Luke 10) sacrificed his comfort, time and money to protect the vulnerable. Which of those is hardest for you to sacrifice and why? Which is easiest for you to sacrifice?
