Taking the Sermon Into Our Week 

Scripture of the Week: Acts 1: 1-14

From the Sermon:

In the Apostle’s Creed we state, On the third day he rose again; _____________________, he is seated at the right hand of the Father, and he will come to judge the living and the dead.

Acts continues the story of what happened to the  _________________ after Jesus’s resurrection.

Jesus circles right back to what he was trying to tell the disciples in the first place - you are going to receive the power of the ___________ and you will be my ________.

Jesus was _________ by God and taken up into heaven right before their eyes.

The Good News that Jesus came from God, but also the Good News that Jesus ________ to God and sits at his right hand!

In order to be bearers of that witness in the world, in order to spread the Word, we need to be _________.

Reflection:

How do we live our lives as witnesses for Jesus?

What power of the Spirit is just waiting to be unleashed if God’s people prayed? 

How are we going to carry forth the work of Christ through the Church?

Prayer:

Lord God, prepare our hearts and voices to be your witnesses in the world. Let your Kingdom’s truth and power be known with those we interact with, in order to bring you all honor and glory. Amen.
