Have you ever shared good news in a place you were welcomed in? In Acts 13, God made Paul and Barnabus the light to the Gentiles and many even became believers. So how can you share the gospel where you’re welcomed?

What languages do you speak? In Acts chapter 13, we see that even over hundreds of years, the message of the Gospel never changed even when the language did. What does the Gospel sound like where you are?

Have you ever changed someone’s mind? In Acts chapter 13, Paul and Barnabas were sent out by the Holy Spirit and changed the mind of a governor into becoming a believer. Where could you be an influence this week?

When was the last time you had to wait for something that took a long time? Across the Book of Acts, we see followers of Jesus practice being with the Holy Spirit as they gather, worship, pray, fast and take time to wait and hear what He has to tell them. Where do we need to shift our own rhythms, so we can create space to be more attentive to the Holy Spirit today?

What should we do when we hit a wall in the middle of our path? In Acts 8 and 11, we see a man named Barnabas and his friends encounter several walls that they could given up on, but instead they see how to continue and not just give up. So how can we turn our “can’t because” into a “can if?”

As image-bearers of God, what do we do with freedom? Romans 6 invites us to be free from sin and choices that wreck us. All the while, Galatians 5 encourages us to be free for the sake of others, bringing them to Christ. When you've experienced freedom in Jesus, how can you serve others in love by how you live?

How do image-bearers live in a government that isn’t perfect? Romans 13 states God’s intention for the government’s role to punish what is wrong and to promote good, but also reminds us that its authority is delegated authority. So as we look through our lens of the government on Earth, what should we start, stop, or maybe change to look more toward God as image-bearers?

Are we created in the image of our human father or God our Father? Well, both. Often, we let our image of “father” shape our image of God. As we are adopted into God’s family, what could happen when we let our image of God shape our image of fatherhood?

What does it mean to be made in God’s image? As we see in Genesis 1, image-bearing is our first identity. But when we fail to view ourselves and others through that lens, things can go very wrong. Thankfully, with Jesus, we can imagine a world where people are free by God’s spirit to represent Him and bring flourishing to everyone around them.

We will always harvest what we plant, even in our friendships. When we show up for our friends and bring the fruit of the Spirit, we are preaching the gospel with our interactions. To become more like Jesus, how can we do the work of change with the help of the Spirit and some friends?

What if we asked: God, what do you want to change about my approach to friendships? Sometimes, we don’t take steps in community because we think we just don’t have time. But as we see in Ephesians 5 and Galatians 6, God created us from relationship for relationships. How can you be full of care in how you invest your time, and realign your calendar to form your friendships?
MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/496...
Friendship is hard work, but always worth the risk. We need the affirmation, support and truth that comes with meaningful friendship. As we see across Scripture, committed friends remind us of God’s love for us, by how they choose to be with us and for us. How can you be the kind of friend you’d like to find?

The grace you experience, you did nothing to deserve; God extends it freely to you. Just as Jonah discovered as he looked out at Nineveh, we also are invited to extend grace freely to others, even to “those people” whom you just don’t want to receive grace. Who is your “Nineveh” that you can extend grace toward because God first loved you?
MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/496028...
The Scripture uses many metaphors to describe God's characteristics, one of which is motherhood. We see all throughout the Bible how motherhood reflects the image of God through His care, compassion, and love. Discover how God invites everyone to reflect His image and how so many ways that people mother point back to Him.

When have you sought a second chance? Just like Jonah and the Ninevites, you’ve likely needed a fresh start before. In those moments, God’s desire is not to condemn you. He wants to rescue you, offering new life through His son, Jesus.

What would it take for you to change your mind in Jesus' direction? When we can admit we are wrong and need help, we make the space for God to do the work in us to become disciple-makers! If we can accept it for ourselves, are we willing to offer it to others?

Where are you tempted to take shortcuts in your formation? Your toughest seasons are your greatest invitation to be shaped by God. He does His greatest work in your weaknesses and challenges, if you’ll let Him. How can you trust God more with your formation this week?

Why does it feel easy to blame people instead of problems? Staying together paints the picture of who God is to those around us. This sort of life requires that we remember why we are together and who we are becoming. Reconciliation is a mindset and a commitment. What step do you need to take to find your way back together again?

Have you seen Jesus? Easter reveals the true character, person, and divine purpose of Jesus. Through His death, burial, and resurrection, all things are made new — even how you see yourself and others. Jesus changes everything!

How do we find our way back together again after disappointment, with one another and with God? Division can breed when people are disappointed in one another. Relationships can break with unmet expectations. But we don’t have to settle for distance. In 2 Corinthians 4, Paul teaches how, by pursuing unity in Jesus’ name.
