Notes for Thought & Discussion<br />
Can you come up with some common sense “truths” that are really not true at all?<br />
The Unlearning of Peter and Cornelius<br />
Look elsewhere: For some<br />
back story on Peter read<br />
Luke 22:54-62 and John 21<br />
We all live by some ______________ or _________________ that needs<br />
to be undone, unlearned, and challenged.<br />
Discuss: Can you name any<br />
prejudices that you have had<br />
to unlearn? Can you share<br />
stories of the challenge of<br />
learning a new language or<br />
way of being?<br />
The Gospel of Jesus _________________ every human assumpon.<br />
God’s commodity of __________________ is a man or woman with a<br />
Peter and Cornelius are unlearning who God _____________ and what<br />
God’s acceptance _______________.<br />
There is neither Jew nor Gen-<br />
le, neither slave nor free,<br />
neither male nor female, for<br />
you are all one in Christ Jesus.<br />
Galaans 3:28<br />
captured heart.<br />
The Unlearning of Saul & Ananias (Acts 9)<br />
Look elsewhere: To find<br />
out more about Saul<br />
read Philippians 3:4-9<br />
The Big Q!<br />
(Please send your responses to reception@gracepoint.ca or be part of the conversation at<br />
http://.gracepointcommunitychurch.wordpress.com)<br />
Saul and Ananias are unlearning who is ____________ and ______ and<br />
What might Jesus be leading us to unlearn as a church in preparation<br />
for a new wave of God’s refreshing power to wash over our world?<br />
that God is up to something new in the world.<br />
