What were some key takeaways from the passage of scripture or the sermon?

Sermon Discussion

Where do you see the “unmistakable resemblance” of Jesus in Peter and John—and where do you long for that resemblance to grow in your own life?

How is the Holy Spirit prompting you to spend more intentional time “being with Jesus” so that His boldness shows up in you?

The healed man stood beside Peter and John as undeniable evidence of God’s power. What “testimony stones” from your own life do you need to remember—and maybe even share—to strengthen your faith and the faith of others?

When you consider the pressures in our culture that push Christians toward silence, where do you personally feel that pressure most?

What would it look like for you to respond like Peter and John: “We cannot but speak of what we have seen and heard”?

What is one area of your life, family, or community where God is calling you to stop running away from the storm and instead face it with courage?

How might turning into that storm actually shorten the pain and increase your strength?

As you look at the storms facing the next generation, the church, and our culture, which one grips your heart the most—and how might God be inviting you to step into that gap?
