Passionate, Faithful Witnesses - Alison Robinson

1. What stood out to you from Alison's talk? 2. Read the quote. What is your reaction to it? 'We were a small Christian community. We were not powerful, we were not resourced. We would focus on expressing the truths and hopes of the kingdom message Jesus preached…. The gathered Christian community was first and foremost a missional group, called together to work as anti-terror cells in our n/hood. Over many meals and midweek gatherings, we plotted ways to challenge the brokenness and celebrate the beauty of our neighbourhood.'Discuss how you think your group expresses the kingdom message of Jesus in your location. Where do you think you, as a group or individually, are being invited to push the boat out into deeper water? What could one 'next step' be? 3. Reflect on the questions from the end of the talk. 1.     Do I have an awe of God?2. Are there things I feel I need to repent of? 3. Am I willing to let go of things that get in the way of me saying 'yes' to the call to greater faithfulness to the gospel?
