OUTLINE:

God's presence (2:1-4)

God's people (2:42-46)

God’s purpose (2:47)

QUESTIONS:

Is there something you are unashamed about liking / supporting? (sports team, hobby, music, political party… etc) Why do you think it can be easier to be bold about those things than our walks with Jesus?

How does seeing God’s Presence, the Holy Spirit, as a fire impact what we see happening in Acts 2:1-4? (Exodus 3, 40. 2 Chronicles 7. Ezekiel 37:27) What does that tell us about God’s Presence now?

Acts 2:42 lists a few things the early church was devoted to. Why do you think these are listed here? Where do you feel particularly strong or weak in these areas?

2:43-46 unpacks how the Spirit filled followers of Jesus were gathering & doing life together. What are some of the things that stood out from the way they do community & fellowship? Have you ever experienced this? What could we learn from this passage about how we see community?

According to v47 - who is responsible for adding people to the church? How can we join God in His purposes to advance the kingdom? In our families? Our work places? Our hobbies?

If Jesus is building His Church, what does that change about how we are to live this week?
