Text :
Acts 6, 1 Cor 15:1-11
Now I should remind you, brothers and sisters, of the good news that I
proclaimed to you, which you in turn received, in which also you stand,
through which also you are being saved, if you hold firmly to the
message that I proclaimed to you—unless you have come to believe in
vain. For I handed on to you as of first importance what I in turn had
received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the
scriptures, and that he was buried, and that he was raised on the third
day in accordance with the scriptures, and that he appeared to Cephas,
then to the twelve. Then he appeared to more than five hundred brothers
and sisters at one time, most of whom are still alive, though some have
died. Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles. Last of all,
as to someone untimely born, he appeared also to me. For I am the least
of the apostles, unfit to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the
church of God. But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace
towards me has not been in vain. On the contrary, I worked harder than
any of them—though it was not I, but the grace of God that is with me.
Whether then it was I or they, so we proclaim and so you have come to
believe.

God's
love and attention for us is without end, without bound, without limits.
Why should our personal worship encompass only 1 hour on Sunday?
God invites us to a 24/7 relationship. Here's your opportunity to
continue to explore the way God's word connects with this week's worship
theme. We invite you to spend some time each day discovering God's
word...

24/7 intro
In Ephesians 2:19-22 , Paul writes "you are no longer foreigners and aliens,
but fellow citizens with God's people and members of God's household, built
on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as
the chief cornerstone. In him the whole building is joined together and
rises to become a holy temple in the Lord. And in him you too are being
built together to become a dwelling in which God lives by his Spirit. "
During the coming weeks you are invited to dig into God's story of the early
church, as we explore those people who became the foundation of the
household of God. We'll read through the book of Acts, and then the Gospel
of Mark as we meet these early apostles and prophets. Stop by
