A Sharing Community
(Acts 4:32-37)
Rev. Brian Lee
I. The Reality of the Church Community Today
Reputation
Influence
II. The Early Church
Favor of God and people (2:47)
With much power and grace (v.33)
With Boldness
III. Becoming a Sharing Community
Meeting the needs of one another
Becoming a faith-sharing community
To the community
To the next generation
To the world
Remember what God has Done
“What shall I render to the Lord for all his benefits towards me? (Ps 116:12)
A Complete Surrender
IV. Application
Can the church live out the same values today as the early church or was it a special incident/calling for a special time? Share your thoughts.
How can you and your family participate in God’s ministry of sharing this week?
