Everyone wants a squad- a community of people that cares for us, helps and supports us, and gives us a place to belong. In short, we all want to be part of a community that feels like family. That kind of community isn't easy to come by, but it's exactly what Jesus had in mind for His followers when the Church began. In this series, we'll discover why the word "Church" means something much bigger than a building, we'll learn what life was like for some of the earliest Christians, and we'll explore four big ideas that mean as much for us today as they did to the Jesus-followers who lived nearly 2,000 years ago. The truth is, we can all be apart of God's family, and because we're God's family, we can do for others what God has done for us, we can grow together, and we can stand strong together. 

Acts, the follow up to the gospel of Luke is the story of God pouring out his grace upon the world, from the cross and resurrection of Jesus in Jerusalme to the ends of the earth. It is clear from the onset that nothing is more prominent then the message of the Gospel! For us today, we need to hear, read, adn be reminded of this. As we live in uncertain times, like that of the early church, we have this cerrtainty, that Christ died and rose, so that we may have life and life eternal. 

During this series, students will walk away with a better comprehension of the Book of Acts, the early church, how it impacts us today, and the trajectory we are on. That we are not a people who are worried or fearful, but out to be bold, compassionate, and lovin. As we look forward to what God has promised us is to come.
