Download a beautiful and free devotional to guide you through the Christmas season with a Bible passage and accompanying ornament to place on a "Jesse Tree" each night. I'm printing mine (it's like a book!) and keeping it in a binder at the ready. Thanks, Tara G., for the suggestion!

What are we doing now?

The birth of the early church is our story. This is where we came from, and it is where we are going. It is the story of how we are called to reach out, and how we are called to come together. In this study, Called and Sent: A Study of the Book of Acts, we will read through the entire book of Acts and discover God’s big plan for His church then and now.

Watch the gospel grow legs and walk around. Watch the early Church figure things out, learn how to love each other in community, and discover how to resolve legitimate conflicts with care. See how they give their lives in faith for Jesus – the Man they watched, with their very own eyes – live, die, rise, and ascend into heaven. The Man they knew, beyond a shadow of a doubt, really is the Son of God.
