Matt Larsen // Acts 5:17-21, 26-42 

Community Group Questions:

1. Joy under pressure (Acts 5:41):

   When you’re “in hot water,” what tends to come out of you—fear, frustration, or joy? What does that reveal about where your identity is currently anchored?

2. Identity in “the Name”:

   In practical terms this week, what would it look like to live from who Jesus says you are rather than from achievement or others’ opinions?

3. Freedom and obedience:

   Where do you most resist obedience right now? How might that resistance actually be limiting your freedom rather than unleashing it?

4. God’s mysterious favor:

   Think of a recent closed door or confusing situation—how could God be “weaving” something you can’t yet see, and how does that perspective change your response?
