Make Us One With Christ
The Spirit of God unites us with Christ’s ability to convict our sin while giving us access to new life in and through the Spirit. Rather than death, we can have life (in the Spirit).

Just as the saints at Pentecost were compelled to distribute their possessions, we too can become one with each other when we share everything we have.

One In Ministry
Just like the saints of the early church, we have unique gifts that we are called and equipped to give to the Church to the best of our ability. Paul reminds us that as we navigate our calling, we are made one in ministry, through God’s grace.

One In Ministry
Just as Paul and Barnabas were called to the whole world by the Holy Spirit, so are we called to participate in the Mission of God happening all around us, in and throughout the world. It may sound/feel/be weird at times, but if we are clear on the one who calls us, sustains us, and comforts us, then we can have the confidence to do hard things in God’s name.
Acts 13: 1-5, 13-15
