Better Together
“A Story to Share”
Acts 2:14-36

Why does the Church matter?

Church
Followers of Jesus who gather together
A group to belong too; not a place to attend

Strength to sustain us
We experience God better together

A story to share
A story that intersects with God’s story

Acts 2:14-38

The Story
God promised to rescue us
Jesus is God
Jesus died, was raised to life and ascended
Repent and be rescued

Where do you see yourself in this story?

The Intersection
Failure
“Saved” = Rescued 	
A new story
			
Failure was the pivot for a story to be told.

Our story is shaped by…
rehearsing God’s story - Deuteronomy 6:4-7; Psalm 42:1-6; Psalm 119:105
worshipping together - Psalm 40; John 12
the gift of other believers - Proverbs 27:17; 1 Thessalonians 2:8
our discovery of gifts from the Holy Spirit - 1 Corinthians 12; Romans 12:6
understanding our purpose - Matthew 28:16-20

You have a story to share.
