Reflect and Respond:
Spend some time considering what God would have you take away from this week’s reading. Some journal prompts to consider might be:
- In what ways can viewing people as problems that need fixing or victims that need saving—or having a “saviour complex”—further hurt and dishonour people living in poverty?
- What are the advantages of living in an individualistic society? What are the disadvantages? What example do we see in Acts 2:42-47 from the early church of what community should look like?
