'Becoming Church' Bible Study


The challenges of Acts 2 , a growing church and holy habits

Becoming Church Bible Study'They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles. 

 All the believers were together and had everything in common. They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need. 

 Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favour of all the people. 

And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved. (Acts 2:42-47 NIV)'

The Book of Acts gives us a fascinating insight into the life, fellowship, and worship of the early church, as it developed post-Pentecost. The six verses that form the backbone of this study are very familiar, often referred to as ‘Holy Habits’, and are always worth spending a little time with, as they speak to us about our own ‘habits’ and how they might change, or adapt, to the greater benefit of God’s call on us to share our faith and make disciples ‘of every nation’.

 

Becoming Church Bible Study on discipleship

The study  is formatted such that each individual study can be printed off on 2 double-sided sheets of A4 for distribution to a group, or distributed by email. If you're using it with more than one group, it would be appreciated if you could consider purchasing one study per group!

The five studies have all you need for a small group discussion, with useful images, plenty of commentary, discussion questions and prayers.

1) Learning and growing together

2) Breaking bread together and prayer

3) God's power at work

4) A sense of community

5) An outward-looking church
