Easter does not end with resurrection morning. The risen Christ gathers a people, breathes the Spirit upon them, and sends them into the world. In Acts and in the Gospel of John, we see what happens next: fear gives way to courage, strangers become community, needs are shared, truth is spoken, and worship becomes a way of life. This series explores what it means to be the church now — not in theory, but in practice — as we learn again to live, love, and act as the body of Christ in our time. Our weekly themes are taken from the Acts of the Apostles passage assigned for the Sunday, from The Message translation.
