Walking With God: Past - Present - Future Week Four

Bridging the Gap, Week Two



This week, while you meet with your Faith Formation Group you may want to reflect on our Scripture passage by reading Acts 2:42-47(printed below) and discuss the questions from the Scripture and Sermon as a way to begin a conversation. 

Acts 2:42    All the believers devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching, and to fellowship, and to sharing in meals (including the Lord’s Supper), and to prayer.

Acts 2:43    A deep sense of awe came over them all, and the apostles performed many miraculous signs and wonders. 44 And all the believers met together in one place and shared everything they had. 45 They sold their property and possessions and shared the money with those in need. 46 They worshiped together at the Temple each day, met in homes for the Lord’s Supper, and shared their meals with great joy and generosity— 47 all the while praising God and enjoying the goodwill of all the people. And each day the Lord added to their fellowship those who were being saved.


Questions for Consideration:
  1. What sticks out to you about the community of believers as is shared in Acts 2? 
  2. What could we do to live into such a community today with the differences of our culture and time period?
  3. How would it be hard to live into this type of community today?

As you meet this week, we encourage you to also take time to open yourselves up as a group and dialog on the following Wesley Challenge question: Am I honest in all my actions and words, or do I exaggerate? (Pages 113-116 in The Wesley Challenge)
