1. We talked this weekend about the fact that "your story has a message." After Peter and John healed the crippled man, his story was shared and the gospel was preached and hundreds, perhaps thousands believed in Christ. What part of your story could be the context for sharing the gospel with others? Where has God brought wholeness to your crippled place?

2. Acts 4:31 painted a description of a prayer meeting that left the place shaken. What do you think needs to be shaken in our church, in your life before we can turn the world upside down?

3. Dan shared a story about the Hebrides Islands Revival. If you have 12 munites watch this video about that revival.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6jVRUyvlSco  Revivals have taken many forms in many different places, what impressed you about what the people shared about this revival?

4. If we want God to shake our church we will need bold prayers. Acts 4:23-30 describes the prayer the people prayed. What was bold about their prayers?  What causes us to pray bold prayers and what takes the boldness out of our prayers?

5. If we want bold prayers we need a more courageous faith. Acts 4:15-22 describes a moment of courageous faith in the life of the disciples. Dan said that courage is not the absence of fear, courage comes when we care more about someone or something else that we care about ourselves. Have you ever experienced that kind of faith?  When?  Think of a time/story when Jesus tried to teach his disciples about faith. What does that story and this passage teach us about growing in faith?

6. If we want a courageous faith, we need to spend more time with Jesus. What are you doing right now to get close to Christ?  What do you need to do?

7. The closing question was, "Are we devoted to Christ?" What does devotion to Christ look like? Is Christ my greatest devotion?

8. The progression laid out in Acts 4 is that   "Spending time with Jesus" leads to "courageous faith" which leads to "bold prayers" which leads to "a shaken church filled with the Spirit which leads to "an upside-down life."  Where are you stuck in that progression?
