This Is Why (part 3): On the Reliability of the Gospels

TO START

This series is deeply rooted in the importance of sharing our faith. What are the things that keep you from sharing your faith with others? How might we overcome those hurdles?

TO DISCUSS

This week’s sermon was so much information! If you’re interested in processing some of it together, great! 

• Have each member share one new thing you learned and one question you have. 

If you’d rather spend group listening to more from the experts, here are a couple options:

• Watch this lecture from scholar Peter J Williams: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hBLyatge8BM

• Watch this sermon from Lee Strobel who wrote the book The Case For Christ: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ybKKQ4FymLg (his message starts at 29 minutes)

If neither of those options bring you joy, try this one:

• Have each group member share why the resurrection of Jesus Christ matters to them. 

TO READ

Read Peter’s sermon in Jerusalem just a few weeks after Jesus’ death on the cross in Acts 2:22-37. 

• What is the bottom line? What does Peter want them to know/believe/do? 

TO PRAY

This week, pray for your neighbors and pray for God to show you ways to love your neighbors.
