Sermon Outline:

1. Confidence

2. Psalm 31

3. The Cross in Luke

4. Our Confidence

5. Jesus' Confidence
Growth Group Discussion & Personal Reflection Questions:

1. What is the impression you get from Psalm 31? What is the Psalmist communicating?

2. Why do you think Luke chose to quote Psalm 31 instead of Psalm 22 when describing Jesus on the cross?

2. How does the meaning of Psalm 31's, "Into Your hands, I commit my spirit..." change when spoken by Jesus at the moment of His death?

4. How does Psalm 31 enhance our understanding of Jesus' relationship with the Father?

5. Why does Jesus seem more confident on the cross in Luke than in Mark and Matthew?

6. Psalm 31 moves between fear, pain, confidence, and praise. Where do you see those same emotions in Luke 23?

7. What does Luke's use of Psalm 31 teach us about having faith when we're not confident?
