Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles.  — Acts 2:43

Inspiration.

What inspires you?

In our worship on Sunday, Acts 2:43-47 will guide us as we explore what inspires the Church and the individuals who give it life. Last Sunday, the conversation began as the Holy Spirit provided all the inspiration necessary as we celebrated the day of Pentecost. Jesus told his disciples that they would not be alone in their journey to love after Jesus left this earth. The Holy Spirit is the advocate that continues to breathe life into the followers of Jesus.

The day of Pentecost was newly behind the people but the crowd of followers has grown to 3000 baptized. The church is taking shape. Awe and wonder are filling not only the new disciples but the original group as well. The term apostle identifies those who walked with Jesus, following his resurrection and ascension. They continue to follow the way of Jesus but now are doing amazing things in his name. The apostles are the living witness and the promise of new life spreads.

The movement of the Holy Spirit was infectious, and the people were coming together for worship, service, study, and prayer. They were serving the “least of these” and were sharing all things in common with each other. They had found a vision, purpose, and plan for extending the love of God to others. More importantly, they were living out the faith.

I look forward to digging deeper into our inspirations and sharing our vision to love like Christ in Sun City! See you in person or online through You Tube or playback later through our website.
