To study Acts 1 in a group
1. What it says
What does Jesus tell the apostles they will receive, and what will they be, before he is taken up? (v. 8)
2. What it means
Why do you think Jesus does not answer their question about the timing and speaks instead of being witnesses? (vv. 6-8)
3. How I live it
The disciples waited together in prayer (v. 14). What helps you hold steady when you wait for something and do not know when it will come?
