Discussion Questions:

1. What would an Apostle among us look like in Grace Fellowship?
2. How does the church suffer lack in the absence of an Apostle figure?
3. Even if you can't think of anyone who completely fulfills all of the requirements of an Apostle, can you think of anyone who comes close?
4. Thinking about the idea of receiving revelation directly from the Lord, what safeguards and boundaries are there to keep us from drifting off into weirdness? (any current day revelation must be kept under the authority of Scripture, church leaders must be in mutual submission to one another, all believers have the privilege of hearing the Lord and the responsibility to be discerning, etc.)
5. When the Scripture presents a picture of normal Christian life that is different from my personal experience:
   1. How does it make me feel? Threatened? Fearful? Inadequate? A failure? Hopeful? Hungry? Discontent?
   2. How do I react? What is my knee-jerk reaction?
   3. How should I react?
