This Week's Lesson

9/22/26:

Read Acts Chapters 8

1
What effect did Stephen's death have on the Church in Jerusalem?
2
Vv. 9-10 speak of Simon the Sorcerer, who was also able to amaze the people with his signs. Do you believe in sorcery or witchcraft? How can we tell the difference between miracles and witchcraft?
3
How would you compare Simon and Philip's character and personalities?
4
What can we learn from Philip's approach to sharing the gospel in vv.26-40?
