Q1: What was your first vehicle? Why did you love it or hate it?
Everyone answers - 30 seconds per person.
Q2: Acts 2:1–4 (ESV)
2 When the day of Pentecost arrived, they were all together in one place. 2 And suddenly there came from heaven a sound like a mighty rushing wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. 3 And divided tongues as of fire appeared to them and rested on each one of them. 4 And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance.
What do you think that moment was like?
Q3: Acts 2:37 (ESV)
37 Now when they heard this they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?”
They were cut to the heart...
Can you tell the group about a time you were cut to the heart?
Q4: Acts 2:41 (ESV)
41 So those who received his word were baptized, and there were added that day about three thousand souls.
Acts 2:13 (ESV)
13 But others mocking said, “They are filled with new wine.”
Not everyone received the word; not everyone heard the miracle. Why do you think this might be?
Q5: Acts 2:42–44 (ESV)
The Fellowship of the Believers
42 And they devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers. 43 And awe came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs were being done through the apostles. 44 And all who believed were together and had all things in common.
Devotion and generosity are natural by-products of a life changed by Jesus. When we experience a lack of devotion or a lack of generosity, what are some things we can do to let our hearts be touched by God again?
DIGGING DEEPER:
Acts 2:46–47 (ESV)
46 And day by day, attending the temple together and breaking bread in their homes, they received their food with glad and generous hearts, 47 praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to their number day by day those who were being saved.
What stands out to you in this verse?
