An Early Christian Community (Apr. 24 – Jun. 5, 2022)
For the season of Easter, we turn to the early Christian community of Corinth to explore several foundational principles for life together in Christ. We celebrate the resurrection miracle and promise not by looking back with longing but by recognizing the power of the resurrection in our communties of faith. We live the promise of Christ’s presence wherever two or more are gathered in his name. The principles of life together fleshed out in Paul’s Corinthian correspondence deimonstrate how we live out that promise.
Apr. 24 – We Live Life Together (Acts 18:1-11 – key verses – 3 and 11) Early Christians spread God’s word by sharing life together.
