Welcome to Immanuel…
Training people to love like Jesus and bring hope, healing and wholeness to the world.
Sunday services @ 10 AM
“The Book of Acts”
Sunday, May 25
Acts 3:1 - 5:14
"Healing & Disruption, Sharing & Lying, Courage & Great Fear"
What is going on in us when we are afraid to speak what we know? Why do we fear what other people think of us?
In the first half a dozen chapters of Acts the community of Jesus' followers is growing and changing rapidly. There is resistance from outside, and there are shocking events within. They have serious internal conflict and turmoil. They are loved & admired, or feared & resented.
Why are the religious leaders so concerned about what Peter and John are doing and saying? What is going on in the early church disciples like Peter and John that they refuse to be silent in the face of threats?
For this week - Read Acts 3:1 - 5:14
Want to Go Deeper? - Read & Meditate on Psalm 118. How does Psalm 118 connect to Jesus and his Passion?
How does Psalm 118 connect to Peter and Act 3:1 - 6:7?
Want to Look Ahead? - Read Acts 5:12 - 6:7

God is in the business of transforming — recreating, rebuilding, and renewing all kinds of things: lives, friendships, marriages, organizations, cities, tribes, and nations. He invites us to participate with him in this. He calls it “following him." We call it our mission.

Worship at Immanuel
Worship at Immanuel is a time for our community to gather together to bring praise to God, to share our lives and stories with each other, and to hear what God has to say to us through the Bible. Our hope is that worship mirrors our relationship with God, and so gives us opportunity as a community to pray, sing, reflect, lament, offer, listen, and respond to the challenges of the Bible. Through the Holy Spirit, we pray that our worship will transform our lives so that we grow in our relationship with Jesus Christ our Saviour.
