Read John 14:1-6

• Jesus begins in verse 1 saying, “Do not let your hearts be troubled.” Why do you think the disciples were troubled?
• Read verses 2 to 4. How would what Jesus says in these verses have comforted the disciples? How do these words comfort you?
• In verse 5 Thomas says “We don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?” Do you relate to Thomas’ question?
• Read verse 4, and then verse 6. Do you think these words were surprising to the disciples? In what way?
• Jesus said, “No one comes to the Father except through me.” Many religions today claim that there are many ways to God. What do you believe? Is it fair that Jesus should claim to be the only way?
