Ask someone in the group to summarize Sunday’s message on Acts 26. What stood out to you the most? (Remember: it’s OK to disagree)
Mike pointed out that Paul had 2 years to prepare his defense for King Agrippa (Acts 24:27) while sitting in jail, only to share his Jesus Story (personal testimony of faith) with the king (Acts 26:4-29). Why do you think Paul decided that the best path to King Agrippa’s heart was simply his story, rather than a comprehensive theological defense?
A powerful way to share your Jesus Story is by talking about what God has done in your life. Ask someone to read Titus 3:3-8 (text below) and collectively point out anything in this passage that could be used to help someone understand how God works in the life of those who trust him. What do you think is the most important part of this passage and why?
Has anyone ever shared their Jesus Story with you? Have you ever shared your own Jesus Story with someone before?
What is the biggest takeaway for you from Mike’s message on Acts 26?

Titus 3:3-8 (NIV)
3 At one time we too were foolish, disobedient, deceived and enslaved by all kinds of passions and pleasures. We lived in malice and envy, being hated and hating one another. 4 But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, 5 he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit, 6 whom he poured out on us generously through Jesus Christ our Savior, 7 so that, having been justified by his grace, we might become heirs having the hope of eternal life. 8 This is a trustworthy saying. And I want you to stress these things, so that those who have trusted in God may be careful to devote themselves to doing what is good. These things are excellent and profitable for everyone.
