Series Passage: Acts 25:1-22
Sermon Passages:

Life Group Meeting

Before you begin looking at the questions, take 2 minutes for quiet reflection. You may want to write down any thoughts or impressions that come to you and anything that you feel the Lord is saying to you or to anyone else.

After this exercise, begin looking at the questions. For each question, spend 1 – 2 minutes in silence before opening up for people to respond.

    • Discuss what it means to have faith in God.
    • Discuss the experience of trusting God in the midst of difficulty.
    • Discuss the experience of waiting for God to do something that you believe He wants to do in your life.
  • Witness
    • How is your life group doing? Who’s
    • Pray for 1 or 2 people that you want to become followers of Jesus.
    • Pray for boldness to build your relationships with unchurched people and to talk about Jesus.

Default Material

(Use these when there are no specific discussion questions for the passage:

  • Question 1: “What is this passage saying?”
  • Question 2: “What is God saying to you through this passage?”
  • Question 3: “How can you apply this passage throughout the week?”

Life Groups

Without life groups, we are at the mercy of cliques and people who aren’t in a clique will “fall through the cracks”. Furthermore, even the people who are in cliques will have some of their issues and needs “fall through the cracks”. This is because life groups are organized to please, and be led by the Holy Spirit, whereas cliques develop solely around whatever the people in the cliques find appealing. Life groups are organized to help you grow and overcome your “issues”; cliques simply aren’t!

Check out our Life Group Pages for more life group information and resources.

Five Thresholds

Because the Five Thresholds approach to relational evangelism helps us to pay careful attention to the people that the Lord brings our way, it is an excellent way to meet people “where they are”. We want to prayerfully help them move through each threshold and become followers of Jesus. At any given stage, we may be planting a seed or watering a seed that we or someone else has planted. At each stage, we should see ourselves, together with other believers, as a hospital for sick and wounded people.
