- Share a time when you have seen God’s kindness at work through a church or group of people like the Macedonians?

- What do you do with that grace? What do you do with your time and money and skills to pursue that grace?
- Matt said some who are rich are poor and some who are poor are rich in spirit, what does that mean to you?
- Who do you relate to more, the Macedonians or the Corinthians?
