Coming out of the Sunday October 24th teaching on “Pentecost (Acts 2:1-13)”, spend some few minutes at the beginning of your Home Church gathering by discussing any combination of these questions:

  • How did God speak to you through the passage and/or Sunday’s message?
  • What questions did the passage and/or message raise for you?
  • What makes “Pentecost” such a mysterious and confusing event for many Christians to understand? How do you understand it?
  • A.W. Tozer once said, “If the Holy Spirit was withdrawn from the church today, 95 percent of what we do would go on and no one would know the difference. If the Holy Spirit had been withdrawn from the New Testament church, 95 percent of what they did would stop, and everybody would know the difference.”
    • What are your thoughts/reactions to this quote (not just it relates to the corporate church, but to us in our individual lives)?
  • What does living in dependance on the Holy Spirit, as opposed to our own strengths/abilities/wisdom, actually look like?
  • How might our lives and our church look differently if we lived this way?
