Sunday Stories for Families: More People Trust in the King (12th July 2020)

About this sermon

Acts 18:1-11 Activity Sheets for Children can be found here: https://stebbes.org/online Questions to dig deeper into Acts 18: 1. What did Paul do when he first arrived in Corinth? (18:4-5) 2. How did God encourage Paul to keep going? Why was it important that Paul should stay and keep preaching? (18:9-10) 3. Why did God have to encourage Paul? What had happened when he tried to tell people the good news about Jesus in Corinth? 4. What did Paul do when the Jews wouldn’t listen? Did he ever stop preaching the good news? Who believed immediately after he stopped preaching to the 5. 5. Jews and started speaking to the Gentiles? 6. Does this mean we should only tell people the good news once? Why/why not? How many times should we try to share the good news with people? Is there a point at which it is worth giving up and speaking to others instead?  7. Did God keep his promise to Paul? How do you know? What did he do? 8. Is it possible to know whether or when a person will believe? Why should this challenge you to keep sharing the good news with them? How does this story encourage you to keep going? Who is in control of whether and when someone will believe?
