SCRIPTURE
Acts 1:1-8 (NIV)
In my former book, Theophilus, I wrote about all that Jesus began to do and to teach 2 until the day he was taken up to heaven, after giving instructions through the Holy Spirit to the apostles he had chosen. 3 After his suffering, he presented himself to them and gave many convincing proofs that he was alive. He appeared to them over a period of forty days and spoke about the kingdom of God. 4 On one occasion, while he was eating with them, he gave them this command: “Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the gift my Father promised, which you have heard me speak about. 5 For John baptized with water, but in a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.”
DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
In what ways can we make ourselves more 'available' to God in our daily lives, and what might be holding us back?
What does it mean to you personally to be 'unstoppable' in your faith, and how can we cultivate that mindset?
What 'ordinary' aspects of your life or work could God potentially use in extraordinary ways?
