Reinventing Church: Acts 4
By Pastor Bill Flavin | Scripture: Acts 4

Do we fall into the trap of believing that what lies ahead in our lives is simply more of what we have already experienced. What if God is up to something new?

This week we read Acts 4:1-22, and saw the disciples get arrested and placed on trial for healing a blind man. The disciples are criticized for sharing about Jesus with others, for being witnesses, for sharing their first hand accounts of the power and impact of Jesus in their lives. How is God working through these “ordinary people?”

Sunday March 10: “Rooted: Fasting” Matthew 6:16-18

Growing up I had a narrow picture of fasting: don’t eat food for some period, which as a student sounded challenging. In Matthew 6 and all over scripture we get a rich picture of fasting as an opportunity to grow closer to God, to challenge the status quo in our lives, and dig deeper into prayer.

Sunday March 3: “Rooted: Prayer” Matthew 6:5-15

It feels like prayer and reading the bible are two of the most common things that we are told are important as Christians. Jesus lays out in Matthew 6 a picture of the heart and posture for prayer that we can model in our own lives.

Sunday February 25: I Love My Church “Rooted In Christ – God’s Word” Psalm 1

Churches often talk about the importance of reading the bible, which is good, and needed. In Psalm 1 though we hear about loving and meditating on God’s Word. That God’s Word would be interwoven throughout our lives, that what the bible says would leak into every aspect of our lives. That God’s Word would give us a foundation to lean on in all seasons of life and in all circumstances.
