G1 What is one prayer that you are glad God did not answer?
G2 What encouragement do you see in Luke 11:1-13 to “Keep on asking, keep on seeking, keep on knocking”?
G3 In what was does Jesus use absurdity to argue His point in our passage? What point is He trying to make?
G4 The Lord’s prayer (both in Luke 11:2-4 and Matt 6:9-13) ends with “lead us not into temptation”. It does not have “for yours is the kingdom, the power…”. This was added later by other people. What might be the advantage to ending the Lord’s prayer with “lead us not into temptation”?
G5 What is the sense of God we get from our passage today?
G6 Think about the way that each member of the Trinity is involved in Luke 11:13 (the Son is telling us that the Father gives the Spirit). What do we learn about the function or role of each member of the Trinity from this verse?
