ACTS 2:42-47: LANDING THE PLANE

“Are you living by design or default?”

Stephen R. Covey

“Virtue is what happens when wise and courageous choices have become second nature.”

N. T. Wright

When Jesus leaves, and the Spirit comes…

And they devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers. And awe came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs were being done through the apostles. And all who believed were together and had all things in common. And they were selling their possessions and belongings and distributing the proceeds to all, as any had need. And day by day, attending the temple together and breaking bread in their homes, they received their food with glad and generous hearts, praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to their number day by day those who were being saved. // Acts 2:42-47 (ESV)

ALL SAINTS DAY

For centuries, the Christian Church has recognized those who have been “promoted to the church triumphant.” In our services today, in the closing hymn/song, we will remember those members of this community of faith, who in the last twelve months have gone on to enjoy the direct and eternal presence of our loving God.
