“Letting Go – Fasting from Self-Confidence”-Week 3, Matthew 26:31-35; 69-75, Pastor Doug Walker

Small Group/Interact Questions

  1. What had taken place just prior to Jesus speaking to the disciples in verse 31? Why is this significant (especially verses 20-25)

  2. What did Peter promise to Jesus? About how long did it take for him to break that promise (i.e. what’s the time frame between verse 35 and 69)?

  3. What do you think contributed to Peter’s short memory? What made it difficult to keep his promise to Jesus?

  4. Verse 75 shows Peter deeply troubled by his inability to keep his word. Many would argue (perhaps Peter did too) that he had learned his lesson and would never make the same mistake again. Do you think this is true? Why or why not?

  5. Have you ever been certain you could accomplish something, or keep a promise, but then utterly fail just like Peter? What was the cause of your failure?

  6. What are some specific ways you can fast from self-confidence this week?
