In this week's message, we resume our study through the book of Acts by picking up where we left off at the end of Acts 12 in November. Pastor Sam explores how the church in Antioch had incredible unity with one another and the Holy Spirit, while themselves being culturally and racially diverse, such that they and the Holy Spirit were described as having the same action.

In this first message of 2024, Pastor Sam explores parts of 1 Corinthians 10, 11, & 12 to think more deeply about what is being offered to us in the act of Holy Communion - the bread and cup. And how Communion is designed to unite us with Christ and with His Body: our brothers and sisters in the church.

During this Christmas season, we are slowing down to receive the many promises embedded in the Incarnation - which is what Christmas is really about. In this first part, we begin our journey through Luke 1, and learn from the story of Zechariah that our own capacity is not a factor in God's ability to carry out His promises.

In part 31 of our study through the book of Acts we look at how the church continued to pray for Peter during his imprisonment, even when they didn't seem to think those prayers would be answered - and we consider the implications for our own approach to prayer in our daily lives.
