To study Luke 7 in a group
1. What it says
What does the centurion say when asking for his servant to be healed, and what does Jesus say about his faith? (vv. 6-9)
2. What it means
Jesus answers Simon the Pharisee with the story of two debtors. What does he want to show him about the woman and about himself? (vv. 40-47)
3. How I live it
The centurion and the woman both came to Jesus humbly. How can you come to him sincerely today?
