Ice Breakers

What would be the strangest or silly thing you’ve ever prayed for?

Looking back on your childhood, what kinds of ordinary or silly things actually scared you?

Questions

1. Praying boldly to the God who created all things (Acts 4:23-24)

Who is the boldest person you know and where would they say their boldness comes from?

Discuss this definition of boldness – Boldness is behavior born out of belief.

How should knowing God is the Creator of the universe affect our boldness?

2. Praying boldly to the God who controls all things (Acts 4:25-28)

How have you experienced persecution, insults, put downs, ridicule or suffering because of your faith?

How should knowing God is sovereignly working all things together for good inform and shape our boldness?

When we’re not bold, what are we afraid of? 

3. Praying boldly to the God who enables all things (4:29-31)

Have you ever experienced God giving you a boldness that wasn’t your own? What was the situation and what happened?

What situations and circumstances in your life do you need to pray for boldness?

How would your Christian walk change if you weren’t scared of anything (finances, persecution, failure, etc.)?

Transforming Prayer: "Expectation" (2 Kings 19:14-19)

This last Sunday, November 1st, I got a chance to preach at Summit View Church's Felida Campus on the west side of Vancouver. It was a really meaningful Sunday because it was the 3rd anniversary of my pastorate at Summit View and the Felida Campus was the first place I had the opportunity to preach in Vancouver. 3 years ago Crystal and I were praying about what God might have in store for us and here we are three years later with two beautiful kiddos, a wonderful church family and a lots of exciting opportunities. I'm thankful for God's guidance and blessing. God is Good!
