Let's take a second to look at where we've been...
In the first three weeks, we've been setting the background for taking information from your head to your heart. This involves realizing that an abundant life is out there to be lived, and that in order to start it off we have to understand that not only will the Father welcome all prodigals, He will also take us on a genuine adventure if we choose to follow.
Last week, we looked at Psalm 122 and asked ourselves the question, "What was it that got David so excited about going to Jerusalem?" We reviewed the festivals, and then spent the bulk of our time in the New Testament book of Acts to see how the early church functioned and we saw what the members were continually devoted to: The apostle's teaching, fellowship, the breaking of bread and to prayer.
In order to get ready for class tonight, re-read Acts 2: 41--47. Then spend some time reading Nehemiah, chapters 7-10, and see if you can pick out any similarities between the early church and the worship assembly that occurred after the wall was rebuilt.
List them, and bring them to class tonight for discussion.
