Threatened, But Not Silenced

Series: Acts – Enjoying God and Engaging His Mission
Acts 4:1-22

Reflection

• What are some of the fears or potential “threats” that you face when you consider being a bolder witness of Jesus Christ to your family members, coworkers, and friends?
• How should your belief in the resurrection of Jesus Christ help you to face those fears and threats?
• What if you are unsure about whether or not to speak up about Jesus in a particular setting? How can you find the wisdom that you need in that situation? (James 1:5)

   Ahh…I had just decided I would work hard to keep the peace with my family over the holidays, and then I hear this very convicting message!! I haven’t said a word yet, but my sister who goes on missions trips and speak to me of sharing Jesus with her neighbors at all cost while living with her boyfriend has warned me I better not be judgemental because “true love overlooks things you don’t agree with.”

   Any advice as to what to say when this comes up this week with my family?
