Conversation with The Church

June 20, 2025

Sermon 15 June – Acts 2:42-47

The church must rise to the need of our day. Acts 2:42-27 gives us a grid of sort of what a church that impacts its world looks like. There are five characteristics—

-it is a movement as opposed to an institution

-it is intentional as opposed to unintentional—devoted to Word, Community, Reflection, and Prayer

-it is scary as opposed to tame

-it is an influence as opposed to being influenced

-it is growing as opposed to declining

Discussion Points

1-As you think about Trinity and this biblical grid, how does Trinity measure up?
2-What will it take for Trinity to become an Acts 2 church?
3-What are you willing to do to see Trinity become the church God has called the church to be?
