Join the MVMNT: Journey to Rome
WEEKLY: The author of both the Books of Luke and Acts is Luke, an observant, educated, historically-oriented figure and writer.
The book of Luke was given as a detailed account of the life and Gospel of Jesus to fortify the faith of the Believers. Acts is the sequel. We get the first hand account of how Jesus’ Life, Death and Resurrection went VIRAL, eventually spreading throughout the whole globe.
This fall we are going to look at a few of the tools and key elements that sparked this wildfire to see how we can continue that MVMNT here, today.
READ: Acts Chapters 19:21 - 27:1 + Acts 27:2-28:31
REFLECT:
How was Paul able to keep in tension his awareness that the Spirit would direct the expansion of the Church however with his own intense strategic planning?
Should we follow Paul’s example of intense focus on the sense of mission in our lives? Or was he exceptional? Or out of balance?
How should we interpret problems, setbacks, failures, etc., as we strive toward our specific strategic plans in accomplishing the mission?
What are the keys to keeping everything in perspective - the enormity of the task and the difficulties we encounter?
** While we may not agree with everything the authors/speakers say in our resources, diversity in perspectives is beneficial to growth, and we encourage an open and Spirit discerning posture while studying the Scripture and while reviewing any resource. **
