G1 What does it mean to "wait for the promise of the Father" as mentioned in Acts 1:4? How can we apply this concept of waiting on God in our lives today?

G2 Why do you think Jesus instructed the disciples not to leave Jerusalem but to wait there for the Holy Spirit? What significance does the location have, and how does this instruction highlight the importance of obedience and patience?
G3 Describe the events that took place on the day of Pentecost as recorded in Acts 2:1-4. How did the coming of the Holy Spirit fulfill the promise mentioned in Acts 1:4-5?
G4 In Acts 2:1, the disciples were "all together in one place." What can this teach us about the importance of unity and community in experiencing God's promises and working of the Holy Spirit?
G5 Reflect on the period of waiting the disciples experienced between Jesus' ascension and the day of Pentecost. How might this time of waiting have prepared them for the arrival of the Holy Spirit, and what lessons can we learn about the spiritual benefits of waiting on God?
