The greatest identity crisis in history wasn’t about losing an identity. It happened when Jesus redefined what it means to belong to the people of God.

Wherever the gospel takes root, the ground begins to shake, revealing what resists God, what distorts him, and what opens to his transforming grace.

Today we pause to remember our Heavenly Father’s love and discover what it means to live as his beloved, gathering around the table where grace becomes tangible.

Through a dangerous journey, a powerful sermon, and a divided response, the story today reveals a simple invitation for the church. 

As we enter the story of Acts, we enter the heart of our mission as a Spirit-filled church.

The Christian life is lived prayerfully inside mysteries we cannot control, and it is there that we discover communion with God.

Today we’ll discover how God uses the scattering of his people to strengthen His church.

This week the Jerusalem church’s reaction to the inclusion of Cornelius and his household raises significant questions such as, “what type of community is the church if it’s truly a Kingdom outpost?” And, “how do we become people capable of partnering with God’s creative redemptive action in the world?”

Today the Spirit of God tears down barriers and expands the church’s vision.
