Principles on giving from God's perspective.

What pain does to you.

Get with people in pursuit of God.

Reaching our world was Jesus' mission on earth.

When God is doing a new thing some of us embrace it, some oppose it and some commit to finding out.

If we desire to identify with Jesus Christ, what shall we do?

God will lead us and guide us.

Persecution: Jesus spoke of it, the early church experienced it, history reveals it and it's part of our world.  What is our response?

Go, Proclaim and Perform

Determine what you would like to do, assemble the right team and go do it.

Through Philip's example, we learn to follow God's leading,  make ourselves available, take initiative, be tactful and be precise.

Life is better in Small Group because it's a place to be honest, belong and regularly frequent.

Acts Chapter 8 helps us to go, proclaim and perform.

Why Church?

The Holy Spirit promises faithfulness.

Goodness is an attribute of God and a way of life.

Kindness is how God relates to us and how we are to relate to others.

God provides it. How do we walk in it?

Fruit of the Spirit - PATIENCE

The Holy Spirit produces joy.  Excuses kill joy.  Guilt and negativity steal joy.  Affliction nurtures joy.  Obedience fosters joy.

The Holy Spirit calls out to the church and to the world, encouraging us to "stay close" to receive His love.

Living in freedom is not going back to our sinful nature but moving forward and walking in the Spirit.  Only then will we experience the Kingdom of God.

Freedom in Christ is freedom from slavery, freedom from fear, freedom from pride and freedom to serve.

Choosing man's way of God's way determines our spiritual heritage and the rewards of our choice.

Our Father invites us into His family, reveals who He is and gives us an inheritance.

Experiencing the power of the Spirit means we recognize deception, believe the truth and claim the promises.

We are justified by faith in Christ Jesus.

Just as there was conflict in the Early Church, there can be conflict in today's church and it needs to be dealt with effectively and with Godly wisdom.

We have the privilege of choice in our lives and the decisions we make impact our lives and those around us.

The church is empowered by the Holy Spirit so when we encounter the enemy we are able to overcome him with the authority of Jesus Christ.

Jesus gives revelation, includes people and produces life change.

Based on a study of healing in the Early Church, what would the role of HEALING be in church today?

We learn what the scripture teaches us about prophecy - what it is, what its purpose is and how we are to use this gift properly.

Easter Sunday

Good Friday Service

The source of our meaning and significance produces attitude to which God responds.

We learn the definition of speaking in tongues and how to express it.

We are called to obey, corrected when we don't and there are benefits when we do.

We find examples of helping the needy in the old and new testament with the early church.  What about us?

We were created to praise and God is worthy of praise because of who He is and what He's done.

The early church devoted themselves to prayer, surrendered to God's will and experienced His power and presence.

Celebration, Remembrance, Examination, Unity, Offering of Yourself, Nourishment

God owns everything and He blesses us when we give.

The Bible is our map to integrity.

We need to be fully committed to God and His design.

Philip had courage, love, was obedient and knew the truth.
