SETTING THE SCENE

In Acts 11, we see a powerful picture of what a healthy, awake, and alive church looks like. The early believers in Antioch didn’t wait for famous leaders—they shared Jesus boldly even though no one knew their names. God used them to change lives! Later, we see the church growing stronger through teaching and discipleship, and then giving generously to others in need. The big question this chapter asks us is: Are we wide awake for Jesus or just going through the motions?


READ & ASK

V. 19-21 - What do you think it means that “the hand of the Lord was with them”?


V. 26 - What does it mean to be called a “Christian”? How should that affect the way we live?


V. 29 - Why did the Antioch church decide to send help? What does this teach us about how we should treat others in need?


PRAY

Ask for prayer request and ask God for boldness to live faithfully for Christ.
