Digest

Answer from what the passage actually says — stay in the text.

  1. What does this show me about God?

    • People from lots of countries all hear about God in their own language. What does that show you about who God wants to reach?

  2. What does it show me about people — and about me?

    • Some people are amazed, and some people make fun. Why do you think the same thing makes people react so differently?

  3. What will I obey this week?

    • What is one thing you would be too scared to do on your own that you will ask God to help you do this week?

  4. Who will I tell?

    • Who do you know who speaks a different language, or comes from a different place? How could they hear about Jesus?

Grow

Growth is God's part, not yours. Do the cycle faithfully and trust Him to give the growth (1 Corinthians 3:6–7).

Pray

God, you came to your friends with wind and fire, and suddenly everybody could hear about you in their own language. Thank you that you want every kind of person to understand. Fill me with your Spirit too.
