A Week in the Life of the Early Church Acts 9:32-43

Today’s passage reminds us of all the things we’ve been learning in Acts about how God is at __________________ in both individuals and churches full of individuals at the same time.

The ______________ Jesus had Envisioned V. 32-35

When Jesus saw him, He said, “You are Simon, son of John. You will be called Cephas” (which means “Rock”). -John 1:42

Jesus was going all over Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the good news of the kingdom, and healing every disease and sickness among the people. -Matthew 4:23

A ____________ after God’s Own Heart V. 36-42

Like a Gazelle, Tabitha was quick to meet needs. She was __________________ doing good works and acts of charity.

My Father is glorified by this: that you produce much fruit, and prove to be my disciples. -John 15:8

By this all people will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another. -John 13:35

There is much we can and should emulate in this passage…

Like Peter, we should ______________ God to use us as we go through our week.

Like Tabitha, we should be ___________ to meet needs as we go through our week.

Like the church at Joppa, we should ______________ one another throughout the week!
