Church 101 | Come Holy Spirit: Peace

  2. Verse 26 starts “when you come together each of you has a hymn or…” In what ways do you come prepared to participate in worship and not just observe?
  3. What is your current thinking on people speaking in tongues or with a prophecy? Does it make you anxious or excited or are you indifferent?
  4. V. 34-35 has been interpreted at least a couple of different ways by the Church over the centuries. How do you currently understand those 2 verses?
  5. “Be eager to prophesy.” What could/does that look like in your life?
