Experience - End of Week 3

SMALL GROUP STUDY GUIDE

INTRODUCTION
The following is a guide to help facilitate discussion between you and the person you’re studying with, or with your Connect Group. Feel free to add, subtract, or change questions to fit the conversation, and pray for the Spirit to lead in all things.

OPEN QUESTIONS
Share one of the most amazing gifts you have ever received, or, one you have given to another person.

HEAD
  1. Read Acts 3 together and share any wisdom, insights, or thoughts that come to you from the reading.
  2. Why do you think the beggar chose the temple gate to sit and and ask for alms all these years?
  3. Do you think the beggar ever had hopes of being healed?
  4. What is the people’s response to the miracle (verse 10)?  Why do you think that is often the response to witnessing something supernatural?
  5. How do you think the crowd would have received being called murderers?  Why might they have been more open to listen to them instead of immediately cast them out?
  6. What are “times of refreshing” and why would they follow repentance?

HEART
  1. Have you ever received anything from God that caused you to walk, leap, and praise Him?
  2. Peter and John claimed to not have a dime to their name, but they “gave” Jesus Christ.  What else do we try to give people to help them, instead of introducing them to Jesus? (recognize that some of those other things may not be bad, they may be what the person needs, but how could we also help them know Jesus?)
  3. When did you first realize who Jesus really was?  What helped you know Him more?

HANDS
As the body of Christ, we are called to be the presence of Jesus in our communities.  Of course we are able to do this because of the Holy Spirit.  So what is one way this week that you could be the presence of Jesus to someone in your community (church, neighborhood, work, home)?  Pray over it, ask for the Spirit to lead and to guide, then go and share Jesus in some tangible way.

LIVING WORDS FOR YOUR WEEK
“Whom have I in heaven but you? And there is nothing on earth that I desire besides you. My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.” Psalm 73:25-26 ESV
