TUESDAY CHALLENGE
Acts 2:41-47 gives us a picture of the essential aspects of the church. We see the first church engaging in worship, fellowship, prayer, and spiritual growth through teaching. All of this was intended to promote a spread of the gospel. Jesus commanded his followers to go and make disciples. The church is the vehicle used to complete this task, but because we are a consumer-driven society, the church is often looked at as a place in which we are fed, encouraged and ministered to. While this is true, as in the first church, we are called to be sharers of all that we receive. We are called to learn and grow spiritually so that we can invest in others. Fellowship means developing deeper personal relationships with those outside of our family circles. Worship is a daily calling, not just something that we do on Sunday mornings. - Pastor Brian
