What Does this Mean?

By Richard Smith

June 6, 2025

*NOTICE: The emphasis of our discussion is to see how the Written Word (Bible) and the Spoken Word (Preaching) work together to build up the believer, so when you see WORD in the questions, know it refers to the Scripture and the Sermon.

 

Recap: Look back for evidence of God’s word reshaping your heart and life.

  1. Does anyone have a testimony that would help the group applaud God’s goodness in your life this week? After responding, take a moment to thank Him for whatever was shared.

EngageLook into the Word of God in light of Sunday’s preached sermon.

  1. Read Joel 2:28-32 as a group and discuss how it relates to the context of Acts 2.

 

Reflect: Look deeper at the preached and written Word.

  1. How does asking ‘What does this mean?’ in response to life events and circumstances change our perspective and relationship with God?

 

  1. How can we develop a vision for our lives that aligns with God’s purposes, regardless of our age or past experiences?

 

  1. How does understanding the ‘day of the Lord’ as described in Joel impact our urgency in sharing the gospel and living out our faith?

 

Respond: Look ahead and around to see how you can be obedient and missional.

 

  1. What areas of your life might you be “going through religious motions” rather than truly engaging your heart. Ask God to help you “rend your heart” in those areas.

 

  1. Richard mentioned having “visions” for how to serve the kingdom and speak of the wonders of God. What vision or dream do you have for serving God in your current season of life?
