Is yours a "Build a Bear" faith? Luke ends his gospel with apostles who are dazed and even reluctant. It hasn’t even been a week since Peter denied he even knew Jesus, Judas – one of the closest in the 12 has turned Jesus in for a bag of silver and committed suicide afterwards, they’re a fearful group, a timid group. They’re confused and reluctant preachers of Christ. Before this moment they had failed at to even stay awake in their prayer time. Eye roll! Pause – sound familiar? It does to me! I sat on a train for nearly two hours a couple of weeks ago near a woman who was texting someone she referred to as “not just a booty call.” While she primped her hair and got ready for this meet up did I reach out and chat with her? Did I let her know about Jesus Christ? No. I wake up and miss my devotional time because I want a few more minutes of sleep. I lose concentration while hearing a sermon. I chicken out from sharing the gospel. I pray and feel ineffectual in my time with God. I doubt and worry and lose heart all the time. I sin and sin and sin the same old sins I’ve been sinning since I first learned there ever was such a thing as sin. I relate. Hello, my name is Jennifer and I’m a follower of Jesus. Join us through this study in Acts and become a more focused, loving, truly gospel driven and Holy Spirit inspired follower of Jesus Christ.
