Joe continues the Series Acts 2:42 and shares on group identity in a Christian context drawn from 1 Peter 2:9, which declares believers as a "chosen people," a royal priesthood called to proclaim God's light. This identity is anchored in community, not individuality.
Using the Beatitudes from Mark's Gospel as a framework, the values of humility, mercy, and peacemaking shape this collective identity. The poor in spirit, those who mourn, and the meek are blessed, illustrating a group rooted in dependence on God, not worldly strength.
Together, these truths call Christians to unite in living out their shared identity as a countercultural testimony of grace and hope.
