LIVING BY FAITH: Faith gives us Courage!

The following questions are to be used as a study aid for the sermon preached by Grant Comp at the Grace Place on Sunday, August 23, 2015.  To get the most from these questions, view the service at http://www.graceplace.us and click on “Streaming.”  From there you can watch or listen to the service first.

These questions can be used in your private Bible study during the week or as the topic for a small group study. For more information on hosting or leading a small group study, click on "GP Small Groups" under "GP Ministries" at www.graceplace.us.

Fellowship:

Icebreaker:
Have you ever participated in a protest?
What was the cause?
What is the most courageous thing you have ever done?

Scripture:
Acts 2:14, 36-41

Lesson:
Did you see the news report about three Americans who thwarted a terrorist attack on a train from Amsterdam to Paris?  Two of the three were military servicemen.  When they saw a man with a gun, they did what they had been trained to do without fear.  In the same way, faith in our God gives us courage to speak up and act out.

Why is Peter an illustration of faith in action?
What gave him his newly found courage?
What about Abraham’s courage from last week?
How does our faith give us courage?
What situations need courage backed by faith?
How does your courage change the situation?
When do you need the courage to speak up?
Where do we need to speak up and act out?
What could you do for God if you knew you couldn’t fail?
