Questions for Reflection & Discussion

If you were to evaluate your heart and actions, is there any area where you’re tempted to “hold back” like Ananias and Sapphira? What is a specific step you can take this week to live with greater honesty before God and others?
What is one tangible way you can live out the Spirit-filled generosity demonstrated by Barnabas this week? Whether it’s your time, resources, or encouragement, how can you give sacrificially for the sake of others?
