Lambs Among Wolves - The Jesus Experience

Questions to Go Deeper in your Faith

  1. What does being an effective missionary for Christ entail?

  2. Read Luke 10:1-24.  How does Jesus describe their missionary calling? How is being a lamb among wolves similar to what Christ has done for us?

  3. When we do work in the kingdom of God, it is common to rejoice in the victories we are gaining. However, Jesus wants us to rejoice in something else. See Luke 10:20 for help. How does your understanding of mission work change with this response of Jesus?

  4. Read Luke 10:25-37. How does Jesus define a neighbor? And who is your neighbor?

  5. The kingdom of God has come near to you.  Who can you asct as a person of peace to this week?

Belts and Bribes - The Spirit Experience - Acts 20-26
Belts and Bribes - The Spirit Experience - Acts 20-26

Paul wants to go to Jerusalem to visit the church there; however, on his way, folks keep talking about Paul in chains down in Jerusalem. When he arrives, a riot immediately ensues, forcing the rioters and the government to act in the only powers they know. Paul is showing them and us a different way, where we don't have to worry about what the opposition will do to us. Paul is showing us the way of the kingdom.

True Power - The Spirit Experience - Acts 19
True Power - The Spirit Experience - Acts 19

Paul walks into Ephesus, and he sees multiple displays of power. First he sees the Spirit of God when some are baptized and they begin speaking in tongues. Then he sees the Spirit when some begin to use the power for their own gain and are quickly humbled. Finally, there’s power of the crowd when they feel Paul’s message of Jesus threatens their city and their God.

Manufactured Gods - The Spirit Experience - Acts 17
Manufactured Gods - The Spirit Experience - Acts 17

Paul goes into a new city; first he goes to the Jews then he ends up with the Greeks. However, when he goes up to Athens, he does not go to the Jewish center but instead to the center of Greekness, Mars Hill, where the learned came and discussed the wisdom of the world. But sometimes gaps show up in the manufactured idols, and statues get made to unknown gods. Paul gives this unknown god a name and tells his story.

Freedom To - The Spirit Experience - Acts 15
Freedom To - The Spirit Experience - Acts 15

Back in Jerusalem the church is hearing all these amazing stories about how the pagan Gentiles are confessing their sins and turning towards the one true God. They are rejoicing until someone in their midst asks if they are circumcised. After all, this one God they are worshiping called for all His followers to be circumcised. What does the church do? Actually maybe the correct question is how does the church handle the issue?

Zealous - The Spirit Experience - Acts 13
Zealous - The Spirit Experience - Acts 13

Paul stands up before the willing synagogue and retells the story of Israel to them. However, he upsets all those in power in how he tells the story. Those powerful Jews then attack Paul and kick him out in a zealous rage. Watch your Zealous Nature.
