MC Questions:

The Increase of the Word

• What does it look like when the Word deepens in us? Why should we read the Word?
• What does it look like when the Word of God spreads out?
• As a church, are we equipped and ready if the Word were to spread and more people who were young and new in the faith were to start coming?

The Multiplication of Disciples

• Read Matthew 28:19 - 20 & 2 Timothy 2:2.
• Based on these verses, what is discipleship? Who does discipleship?
• Can a person be an obedient Christian and not be involved with discipleship?

The Obedience of Spiritual Leaders

• Contrasts the priests with the Apostles in Acts 6:1 - 6.
• How were these priests dropping the ball and how were the Apostles setting the example?
• How are many spiritual leaders dropping the ball today? Why should we be careful to those we listen to?
• Is it possible for spiritual leaders who are being disobedient in the faith and teaching a false gospel to be saved?
