Over the past two Sundays, we have been examining Peter’s first sermon, preached to a large crowd on Pentecost Sunday. This week, we will move from Peter’s first sermon to a description of the first Christian community in Jerusalem — a community that studied and worshipped and prayed and ate together, and shared all of their possessions. Is this the ideal way of living for Christians? What can we take from the early Christians’ example as a modern Christian church? How are we called to live with each other as followers of Jesus the Messiah? Join us as we reflect on these important questions n this fourth week of Eastertide. See you Sunday morning, in person or online.
