Focusing on God’s Word
DEVOTED:

What were the new Christians “DEVOTED” to…
- to the apostles’ teaching
- Taking the Scriptures & applying them to their lives
- to fellowship
- active participation in a community of believers which encourage, support, and love one another like Jesus
- to the breaking of bread
- Helps us remember Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross and is a means of spiritual communion with God and fellow believers.
- Jesus gave Himself completely to give us a better life, a new start, and a fresh relationship with God. It’s not about a ritual to revere, but a person to worship.
- to prayer
- a conversation with God—a space to share your questions, dreams, hopes, and fears.
