During the month of July, we will move from the Gospels to the one book of history in the New Testament, called Acts (or the Acts of the Apostles). Acts is the history of the early church, from its beginning on the day of Pentecost to its spread throughout the whole Roman Empire. God used the disciples, the early church members, and special missionaries that He called (like Paul, Silas, Barnabas, and Timothy) to carry the Good News about Jesus to everyone.
This Sunday we will look at the first church, in Jerusalem. When God sent the Holy Spirit as Jesus had promised, Peter preached a sermon on the day of Pentecost that resulted in 3000 people believing in Jesus and following Him. They joined with the disciples and other believers to form the first church, which met together for worship, prayer, teaching, and fellowship. Today our church and other churches still do the same kinds of things.
Join us this Sunday as we begin this new unit…and bring a friend!
Tom and Sydney Cook
