"Missio Dei: The
Spirit, the Church, the Mission"
Growing DeeperHave you ever been on a mission trip? What was the experience like? How is
being on a mission different than regular life?
Why do you think Luke felt it was important to record that during the 40
days after his resurrection Jesus presented “many proofs” to his disciples
(Acts1: 3)?
The disciples seemed confused by what Jesus’ purpose was after his
resurrection. What did they think he was going to do? How do we miss Jesus’
purpose in our lives?
Why do you think Jesus told the disciples to wait together in Jerusalem?
What were they waiting for?
Once the disciples received the Holy Spirit what was their commission? What
is our commission today?
What is the Holy Spirit’s purpose in our lives (Acts 1:8)? How does the Holy
Spirit fulfill God’s promise in the Old Testament (Acts 2:33)?
What is the mission of the church?
How does the Holy Spirit help the church fulfill its mission?
