Mary Magdalene (Lilith) is clearly struggling. Have you ever felt like she does in that first episode lost, alone, and trapped in a cycle you can't seem to break?

Matthew's job as a tax collector is not popular. Can you imagine what it would be like to have a job where you were automatically disliked by most people? How might that affect how you see yourself?

Simon Peter makes a risky decision with his fishing. Have you ever taken a big risk hoping for a big reward? What motivated you, and what was the outcome?

The scene with Jesus and the children is simple but powerful. What do you think it tells us about Jesus's priorities and how he sees people?

The episode shows some of the tensions between the Jewish people and the Romans. Have you ever witnessed or experienced a situation where there was tension between different groups of people? What did you learn from that experience?

Like Mary Magdalene, everyone has times when they feel lost or overwhelmed, yet these difficulties can also lead to progress. Isolation and self-doubt might result from having a job that you despise, like Matthew's employment as a tax collector. Regardless of the result, taking chances, like Simon Peter did when he fished, promotes development and teaches flexibility. Jesus emphasizes His message of appreciating humility and those who are disregarded by society in His interaction with the youngsters. Conflicts between groups can be opportunities to develop empathy and heal differences, as seen by the tensions between the Jewish people and the Romans.

2. It would be very tough to have a job where people dislike you automatically. I think it would make you question my worth and feel isolated. It might push even push me to either close myself off or work even harder to prove myself

3. I have risked things myself for example, joining activites I have little to none experience yet have hopes for it. The motivation was usually to get a better future or prove something to myself. Sometimes it paid off, and sometimes it did not, but either way I learned something in the end.

4. That scene describes Jesus as a man who appreciates simplicity and innocence and that He considers everybody important, even those society deems unimportant. It reminds us that love and kindness do not have to be complicated.

5. I have learned that people fight because they are different. This taught me that listening and understanding can help. Even if it takes time, finding common ground makes things better. Working together is what makes peace possible

2. In my opinion, having a job where almost all people dislike you would be extremely lonely. if it keeps on going it can also lead to depression. It can also make someone not too friendly and make them feel someone that doesnt belong there.

3. For me risks is part of life, as to get succesful you need to take risks but can also have a consequences when not done properly. One example can be starting a new project but doesnt know the desired outcome that youwant. I believe that what motivates people in these moments is often faith, ambition, and many more like Simon Peter.

4. For me, this scene shows the true nature of Jesus. He doesn’t only focus on powerful or important figures instead, he gives time with those who are often overlooked. I believe that this shows that everyone matters to him, even if they are poor.

5. For me, conflicts happen in many places, whether due to cultural, problems and many more. For me, One lesson from such experiences is that misunderstandings often fuel division. Lastly, is when people seek to understand each other, respect, and even reconciliation, are possible just like how Jesus.

It will be lonely and hard to apologize whenever one's job requires. One may feel unappreciated or being judged; in certain extreme cases, they may even begin to doubt themselves. However, if one believes that this meaningful extension of their purpose is indeed important-or, due to other values, one inspired personally, they might find rather creative ways to construct self-assurance, regardless of what others think.

Yes, I have been into a lot of risk. Sometimes in academics or extracurriculars. Then, when I made to join the competition and didn't know whether I was going to even win or lose. I found it hard; but through all that, it was the best possible way to mature. I didn't win, but I grew from that and hence became a better person because I learned.

It shows that Jesus values purity, humility, and love. It shows that, no matter the status, he does not judge people based on worldly possession but on the purity of one's heart. Hence, he reminds us that one lamb has equal value in the eyes of our gracious Lord no matter what age it is or what situation it finds itself in.

Well, I have seen a couple of instances of tension among people, be it related to issues like caste, creed, and race, or for that matter, mere perspective. And one thing I did gather was that misunderstanding and lack of communication almost always accentuate the conflict a lot. Whereas when people work amongst each other, listen, and meet an agreement of a common ground, the situation gets eased. As respect and empathy enter the room, half the battle really gets won!

2. I think it can affect my self-image and my self-respect of other people's view of me. It is isolating and feels like I'm an outcast. It can also lead to self-hatred

3. My motivation was always for a better life and a chance to improve myself. The outcome was worth it, as long as you work hard. If you don't put in the effort, time, and patience, you won't have the outcome you expect.

4. That scene shows that he values every individual's worth and dignity regardless of their status. It shows his compassion and towards anyone. It also shows he prioritizes anyone.

5. Yes I have experienced tension between two groups. I've learned that it starts with misunderstanding. I learned that it is important to understand both sides and that open communication is important. Judging is sometimes the reason of the tension

2. This job would be tough and lonely for someone who has to work with these people. It would make an individual feel less deserving or even subjected to the judgment of others; in extreme cases, they could even begin to doubt themselves. If, however, he/she felt that the job had a meaning or was motivated by other personal values, the individual could develop a system of rationalization that would enable him/her to remain confident despite the opinions of others.

3. I have, at times, been a risk-taker. Sometimes in academics or extracurricular activities. A case in point would be when I entered a competitive contest, not knowing if I would be walking away with the first prize. It was tough, but the most fulfilling reward was growth. I did not win, but gained quite a lot and became even more confident because of it.

4. It shows that Jesus prefers innocence, simplicity, and love. He does not assess human beings based on their status but rather with a view to their heart. This reminds us that He values every human being irrespective of age or status.

5. it Yes, I saw situations where tensions were high between groups of people. This could be due to differences in beliefs, background, or just perspective. One thing I learned is that usually, it's the misunderstandings and lack of communication that worsen the whole conflict. On the other hand, when people begin to give a listening ear to one another and seek common ground, tensions may ease. Respect and empathy go a great distance in closing the gaps between groups.

2. If people did not like me regardless of the job I had, it would be extremely lonely. And at times, I might think I was of no value in case I am only doing what my job says to do. This makes me appreciate finding a self confidence as opposed to looking for confidence through what others perceive about me.

3. Yes, I have taken risks before. like speaking up in a sticky situation, and I risked it all, because I thought it would make a difference, even though I didn't think it would work. But I learned in the long run that sometimes risks are needed for growth.

4. It shows that Jesus values everyone, even those who seem unimportant to others. He takes time to be with the children, showing kindness and patience. This reminds me that no one is too small for His love.

5. Yes, Ive seen situations where people from different backgrounds didnt get along. Most of the time, misunderstandings make things worse than they need to be. Ive learned that listening and trying to understand others can help bring peace.

3. Yes, i have taken a big risk to get a big reward. I wanted to make people happy. The outcome was successful.

4. It tells us that Jesus priorities is us. He sees peoples as our children.

5. Yes i experienced that. They were fighting. I learned that i should not fight any people.

2.I cannot imagine what it is like to be hated just because of how others see the job you do. But, if it ever happens to me it will greatly affect my mental health. I will probably be depressed about the work I do.

3. My family and I have taken a huge risk before. The result is me, studying at JHS. The only thing that motivated me was my family.

4.I think it tells us that Jesus is a righteous person. And that he sees us as a precious creation of God. He sees life as a precious gift.

5.Based on my memory, i have seen or experienced tension between other groups. I learned that different people have different beliefs. It can influence other's decisions.

3. Simon Peter’s Risky Decision Simon Peter took a bold risk with his fishing, hoping for a big award. I’ve taken risks before, like moving into a new opportunity without knowing if it will work out. Sometimes, these risks really paid off, bringing growth and success, but there are times it led to failure and learning experiences. Either way, they always taught me something very valuable about faith, perseverance, and trust.

4. It shows that Jesus shows worth to people and not for their status, but for their hearts. He gives time for the ones society often overlooks, treating them with love and patience. This reminds me that no one is too small or not important to Him, and that I should make my way through to see others through His eyes valuing kindness, humility, and genuine connection over worldly success.

5. The episode highlights the conflict between the Jewish people and the Romans, showing how power hustles and prejudice can divide people. I saw similar tensions in real life, either in cultural, political, or social conflicts. One thing I’ve learned is that the division often comes from fear and misunderstandings. True peace requires seeing people as individuals rather than just members of a group and being eager to listen with empathy rather than judgment.

2. If I would have a job that affected how people see me in a negative way, I think it would affect me greatly. As a sensitive person, I take things personally too quickly. I might see myself as a bad, weird person who won't fit in. During these times, I go to the Lord and ask for guidance.

3. Yes, just like Simon Peter, I have taken some risks. Sometimes for fun, other times I had doubts if I wanted to. For example, I had to step out of my comfort zone because my parents and friends had inspired me. I participated in a MR. and MS. United Nations in my past school, and I was able to get the first place as MR. UN. Other times, I just wanted to try something new, like joining the Liturgical Ministry. My parents, friends, siblings, and my family motivated me to take risks. Most outcomes were good, others, a fail, but I really learned a lot.

4. The scene of Jesus with the children made me realize how much Jesus loves us. It shows how Jesus really is the King of Mercy, and how many times he has forgiven us. I was reminded of how Jesus went out of his way to save us, and even gave sinners in Hell another chance. He sees people with great love and mercy, his willingness to help one another. He wants everyone to be in paradise, clearly prioritizing that throughout His life as a human.

5. Yes, I have experienced an experience as the tension between Romans and Jews. What I learned from such an experience is that we should always put ourselves in the shoes of others. We should be open-minded and not stay at just one side. Before siding with one group, we really have to take note of what they really are trying to do. We should have proper information before picking a side.

Matthew's Job as a Tax Collector – It must be hard to have a job where people automatically hate/dislike you. I think that it could lead to someone becoming very defensive or deeply hurt. They might start to feel unworthy of friendship or kindness, much like Matthew appears to struggle with in the episode

Taking the risk for Simon Peter: Some people might not want to take the risk since their scared, considering so much was on the stake. Sometimes, it pays, while other times it leads to failure or even good lessons learned. Simon's situation shows us how desperation can make people take bold decisions.

Jesus and the Children – This scene is very beautiful because it shows us how Jesus considers everyone great in this world, regardless of their status. It shows us how Jesus will take some time to communicate with the children, as if no one is small enough for Him to give time and love to.

The Tensions Between The Groups – Sadly, division and conflict are still present today. When I see those tensions in the episode, it makes me think on how misunderstandings, power struggles, and fear contribute to division. It also makes me think about myself and my own reactions when I see those tensions in real life.Mary Magdalene's Struggle – Many of us have felt lost, alone, or stuck at some point in our lives. This moment in the episode shows us the deep sense of despair. Yet, it also serves as a reminder that transformation is possible, even when we feel beyond help.

1. Yes. It is normal for people to struggle in life. Its normal but dont let it conquer your mind, you need to move on and continue life. You need to ask for help to god and let his plans decide for u.

3. Yes just like peter i have taken risk on my life. Sometimes you get big reward sometimes small. Just like our subject teacher said if u risk theres a possibility to get high rewards or not. Its either u stay in the present or improve ur future in the present

4. I realized that God equally loves every person. No matter who is he/she he will love you with all his heart. Willing to protect and save you. God has opened His heart for us in every way he can so we need to take the opportunity that he gave us.

5. Yes, i have experienced it also. I learned to be humble so the scenario doesnt gets worst. And also think before you act. The tension can be solved by explaining and talking to them respectfully

Yes I have felt what mary magdalene what she felt on the first episode. I also felt alone, lost and trapped in a cycle where I can't seem to break out of it. An example of this is about my academics where I have a hard time fixing my sleep schedule due to my time management.

2.

I can imagine That I have a job and I will be automatically disliked by most people. I can also see how it will affect on how I will see myself when I am disliked by many people. It can affect my confidence in myself since I will think that I am not doing great in my job.

3.

Yes I have did many risky decisions hoping for a big rewards before. I also had many motivations making me do these decisions. There were several outcomes where it was bad and good.

4.

I can say on how can Jesus see us is that he loves us very much and would treat us all equally. And it tells us about his priorities and how he sees us because he came here in earth in order to save us people from sin. He sacrificed his life so that we could be saved from our sins.

5.

Yes I have experience a situation where there was tension between different groups of people. There were a lot of times that I experience this, intrams is apart of my experience where players havw a tension on each other. What I learnt from this is that violence isn't always the answer to this, the best solution to do is to show respect to each other and fo rgive others.

2. It wouldn't feel nice for the people around you to dislike you. It would personally affect me because I enjoy spending time with friends and people disliking me would change that. If people disliked me, I would see myself as a bad person.

3. Yes, I have made multiple risky decisions. Most of these were in academics and during PeTas. We wanted a higher grade and because of the risk, we eventually got it.

   
   

4. Jesus came here to fulfill His main mission in saving the world. He came here to cleanse us of our sins so that once we leave Earth, we reunite with Him in heaven. Jesus sees people with love and compassion, as he knows we fell to sin and wants to change that.

   
   

5. I have witnesed multiple situations like the Jews and Romans. What I learned is that violence isn't always the resolve. The two parties should talk it out and avoid physical altercations as much as possible.

If I were on Matthew’s shoes, having a job that is automatically disliked by the community, it won’t change my perspective of myself because, I’m only doing my job. Although it would change my perspective on other’s for shaming me for something or doing what I’m supposed to do.

    Like Peter, I have taken big risks to procure big rewards, for example confessing to someone I like, or taking a big/main role in a dance. What motivated me to take this big risks is the satisfaction or the feeling of achieving something big.

  As said in the Bible, Jesus is love, he died for our sins and forgave us for our sins. He healed the sick and helped the ones in need. This shows that Jesus’s love for us is unconditional, no matter what kind of person we are.

   I haven’t in groups, but during my elementary days, I was bullied by the same kid for 3 years, he even knocked one of my tooth out. But when I was grade 6, I stood up for myself, humiliated him and pulled the girl he liked. But I did eventually find out what I did was wrong, what I did made me less than he was, so I apologized to him, became friends with him, and helped him change.

I can Imagine having job that people automatically dislike. A lot of jobs people do not want to do but they have to do it to make a living. I think that you will have low self confidence and it would affect you negatively .

I have taken a big Risks in a lot of moments of my life. What motivated me is the big reward that I could have gotten for taking the risk. In the end I didnt get what I wanted but I know God made that choice for a reason.

I think it shows us that like we are told about Jesus that he is the son of man. It shows us that Jesus prioritizes us and Loves us. Jesus sees people as his family and always chooses them beyond anything else.

Yes I have experienced a situation where there was tension between a group of people and me. I learned to think before my actions and to respect boundaries. I learned to know when to talk and when to stop.

Having a job where you are disliked by most people would probably feel humiliating. Knowing that the one thing you worked hard to get, only gives you hate from other people. If i were in this situation, I would imagine that I'd constantly feel ashamed for the job I got myself into, I think most of the time I would take my time off just to not deal or overthink about people's thoughts on my job.

I've taken big risks many times in my life. One of the significant risks Im currently doing is liking someone out of my league. What motivated me to liking this person was how quick I got close with her. The outcome is still unknown since I'm still going through this risk, so I pray to the Lord for the best, and I will believe in His plans no matter what happens.

Like how we see other people in our lives as important, I think Jesus does the same. I think Jesus prioritizes the future of people. I believe He sees people as precious living creatures.

I've experienced witnessing tension between different groups. Most of the time these are during debates or arguments between topics. What I learnt significantly from these events was that we all have our own opinions with our own supported facts. Additionally, I learnt that every topic, in one way or another, has its own flaw.

2 If I was in the position as matthew I will be affected by how people thinks about me because in their time being a tax collector is one of the most disliked job.

3 the biggest risk I took was me leaving my old school because it was my home for 6 years I did not want to leave so I took the risk of taking the ustet then as you can see I am now a student in ust

4 Jesus sees the people as the sheep and him as the Shepard so he always leads us to the right way and keep us in line and find us when we are lost

5 I was once in that situation what I did was I choose one side because I did not want to be left out and now that I have grown up I realized that it was wrong I should have just left because I was not part of that fight like the Romans and the jews

2.) I personally think that would be hard. If everyone didn’t like me just because of my work, I think it would really take a toll on my mental health, and think I’m a bad person. It would be difficult to stay confident or happy if people avoided me. But like Matthew, I would also learn not to care that much about what other people think and focus on doing my job.

3.) Yes, I have taken risks before, like trying something new even though I haven’t tried it or I was simply scared. Sometimes I did it because I really wanted something, and sometimes I just didn’t have another choice. Sometimes the risks paid off, and for that I was really glad I tried. Other times it failed and I felt dissatisfied. But even if I failed, atleast I learned something.

4.) Jesus didn’t think less of children, instead he made time for them, he truly cared for them. That shows to me that he values anyone, whether they’re rich or poor, old or young. He treated everyone the same, with love and kindness. He showed that he cared about everyone regardless of who they are.

5.) Yes, I have seen people fight over things because they had different opinions. I learned that when people don’t understand eachother, they tend to be judgemental. I learned that kindness can help people find common ground. Even when there’s tension we can always find ways to make peace.

2. Who was I would be really sad because my influence gives bad vibes to other people. It might break my heart figuring out people don't like me. I could be a rejected as those would ignore me.

3.I have made a big chance previously. I entered the Litmin clubrather of the athletics Club so I can get nearer to God. My relationship with God was growing and getting deeper. 

4. Healing individuals from sin is Christ' primary objective. He has been charged with sharing the gospel. In accordance with him, everyone is a child of Lord and the son of God.

5. I have seen or experienced in a situation when there were a conflict between two factions. I learned that some people think and believe differently than others. I learned that you must confront these opinions and concentrate on what you believe.

Having a job where people immediately dislike you would be extremely challenging. It could lead me to question my value and feel isolated. That kind of situation might make me withdraw or push myself even harder to prove my worth.

I have taken risks, such as joining activities I had little experience in but believed could lead to something better. My motivation was often to create new opportunities or challenge myself. Sometimes these risks paid off, and other times they didn’t, but each experience taught me something valuable.

That scene presents Jesus as someone who values simplicity and innocence, recognizing the worth of every individual, even those society tends to overlook. It serves as a reminder that love and kindness don’t need to be complicated.

I have realized that conflict often arises from differences between people. This has taught me that listening and trying to understand others can lead to resolution. Even if it takes time, finding common ground can improve relationships. True peace is achieved through cooperation.

2. Matthew’s job makes people hate him. He has money but no real friends. Being rejected all the time can make you feel alone and very lonely.

3. Simon takes a big risk, hoping for success. Risks can bring good things, but also bad things. But sometimes, you have to sort of gamble and risk it.

4. Jesus always welcomes children with kindness. He cares about people, not status or power. His love is for everyone, and spreads his goodness to everybody, bad or good.

5. The Jewish people feel controlled by the Romans. This creates problems and struggle within them. But, respect and understanding can help them have peace.

2.      Being disliked could hardly affect you because this is where doubting comes in, and you start questioning yourself. You may feel alone but, this shows people like the experience of Matthew that we can change when we are given the opportunity to.

3.      Every person may risk everything for a reward, especially those in need. Sometimes, these risks may lead to great rewards, but on the other hand, they may teach us valuable lessons. Sometimes, the reward is not the important thing but the experience it self what you’ve learned from it.

4. Jesus shows his deep love and affection for those who are undervalued. He chooses those who are desperate and are in need. His perspective is everyone being equal.

5. I’ve experienced this in different circumstances all of these are caused by misunderstandings. This kind of situation tells us the importance of communication on how we need to understand the feelings of others. Peace and connection can help us to prevent this circumstance.

2. It is normal for people to have problems in life. Hard times happen, but you should not let them control your thoughts. Keep going and trust that God has a plan for you.

3. Yes, I have taken risks in life, just like Peter. Sometimes, risks bring big rewards, and other times, they don’t. But if you never take a risk, you might miss the chance to improve your future.

4. I realized that God loves everyone equally. No matter who you are, He will always care for and protect you. God gives us many chances to be close to Him, and we should accept them.

5. Yes, I have been in that kind of situation before. I learned that being humble can help avoid making things worse. The best way to fix problems is to stay calm and talk things out with respect.
