Community Group Prompts and Discussion Questions
Helping one another love Jesus, His people, and His world
Loving Jesus
1. Craig argued that, “This summary text of revival in the early church looks beautiful. But it’s messy, risky, inconvenient, challenging, and most of all it’s impossible without the power of the Holy Spirit.” Why is it good that’s it’s the “Holy Spirit who empowers us to live out our new life in His new community” and not something we can manufacture?
Loving His People
2. If you were to be a part of any affinity group, what would it be about? In what way(s) would that group be different from the church? In what way(s) is the church better?
3. What does it look like for us to share life together beyond just attending church? Can you think of any practical ways we can build deeper relationships?
Loving His World
4. Acts 2:47 tells us that the early church grew because of their community life. How does the way we live together as a community serve as a witness to those outside the church? What are some specific examples in your life?
