Life Group Questions: 1) How long have you been a believer?? What keeps you coming back for more?? 2) Would you consider yourself as enthusiastic as you were when first receiving Christ?? Why or Why not?? 3) Do you have “Acacia Wood” type faith?? Or is your spirit easily affected when you’re let down, faced with defeat or you are told “No” etc...??
