This week we look at the community in Acts 4 and how it calls us to an impossible task of loving. We try to release ourselves to God in order for God’s work to be accomplished in and through us.

On this day of Pentecost, we talk about the work of the Spirit that binds us to one another and sends us out, overturning the work of sin to isolate us and pull us into darkness, away from God and away from one another.
We take a look at the stoning of Stephen and find that he, too, was living an abundant life in the Spirit even as he was en route to death.
We look at the challenging and inspiring account of life together among the first followers of Jesus. We find that it is not quite as out of reach as we tend to think.
On this day, we were officially “organized” as a Church of the Nazarene! In an abbreviated sermon, we look at the next section in Peter’s sermon on the day of Pentecost, challenging our newly recognized congregation to hear the Spirit with enough openness to be “cut to the heart” on a regular basis.
In this second Sunday of the Easter season, we look at part of Peter’s sermon on pentecost, proclaiming the gospel to the Jews gathered in Jerusalem.
