02 Brick by Brick Blueprint for Life

What does the Word of God say about God's plans, purposes and patterns for how we should live and how we should do church? This second episode looks at what it means to be devoted to fellowship. In the West, we have a very individualistic outlook on life, and this mentality has often crept into the church. We need to ask ourselves, do we love Jesus but struggle to love people? This is contrary to the Gospel and God's purposes. ABOUT THE SERIES:This seven-part video series takes an in-depth look at each of the values mentioned in Acts 2:42-47. The early church built their lives around these values, and God added to them. As a result, they are an example to us of how to build healthy churches. Using God’s blueprint, we learn how to build the church and live to glorify God. We believe that only God can build His church; He is the Architect, and by following these principles, life will flow in our churches, and the lost will be saved.“They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles. All the believers were together and had everything in common. They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need. Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.” – Acts 2:42-47 (NIV)
