God’s spirit was alive and active in the early church in Jerusalem. His apostles were bringing new believers to faith. They were doing good work serving God’s people there. Yet, as Pastor David points out today, this is the point at which God called his servants to scatter to other nations. It didn’t make sense. But, ultimately, God’s plan was far bigger and more exciting than any of his disciples could understand. His word spread and His name was proclaimed as believers trusted his call and followed in faith.
