Podcasts about scripture: acts 2:42-2:47

What if one of the biggest obstacles to spiritual growth isn't a lack of knowledge... but a lack of connection? This week in our series This Is Who We Are, we'll explore why God never intended us to follow Jesus alone. Through Acts 2, we'll discover how authentic community, meaningful relationships, and genuine belonging are essential parts of a growing faith. If you've ever felt disconnected, unseen, or like you're carrying life's burdens by yourself, this message is for you. The kind of life-changing community God designed may be closer than you think.

Sunday, March 8, 2026 – Pastor Justin delivers a message titled, “Moving on to Maturity,” based on Acts 2:42-47. In this message, he encourages us to emulate the early church in four key areas. As the early church was forming, Peter encourages them to continue in the 1. Apostle’s doctrines – which means studying together and growing in like faith. 2. Fellowship – meaning building community and living life together beyond just Sunday mornings. 3. Breaking bread – referring not only to sharing daily meals but also to honoring the Lord’s Table of communion and remembering Jesus' life, death, and resurrection. 4. Praying together – which involves sharing burdens by taking them to God in Jesus' name. Let’s put this into action in our lives and be the Church in our community. Come worship and study with us...

If you show me your friendships, it will reveal the direction of your life. The community you choose could be the difference between living in darkness or living in light. We first must enter into fellowship (koinonia) with God, and that fellowship will ensure that we live in the light of truth. It is a beautiful thing when groups of people fellowship with God and enter into fellowship with one another. Sometimes this means we have to search for a new community that can help us live into the light.

"Life together is a gift, not a given." Jesus declared that his disciples would be his witnesses “to the ends of the earth.” Early Christians lived out this proclamation in powerful and palpable ways. Today we struggle to witness to those close to us, let alone to those at the ends of the earth. This series offers a glimpse into ways early Christians witnessed. Impacted?
