Numbers 20:1-21 - I get used to seeing the Israelites complain in the wilderness, but this complaint actually seems legitimate. It's not that they shouldn't expect God to care for them, but that they truly do need water and they aren't finding any. Most of our complaints come from selfishness and impatience, but is there ever a time when we should complain to God? Is there such thing as a complaint of faith?
Luke 20:19-44 - The most absurd thing to me about the Sadduccees' question is that they think it's more mind-boggling to figure out marriage in an after-life than it is to comprehend resurrection. Jesus doesn't get caught in their rhetorical box, but instead highlights the power of God. How do we often find ourselves arguing in other people's rhetorical boxes? How can we confess Jesus in these situations?
