Acts
Kingdom Community
By reflecting on this summary of church life from the very beginning of the Christian movement, we learn to live as Christ's Kingdom Community (the Church). This kingdom community is a Word-centered, generous, relational, worshiping, and expanding community of people devoted to Christ and His work in the world
