Acts: The Pioneering Church
Part Two: Birthed for Mission

James Silley

James takes us through the second part of our series looking at the book of Acts: James Silley


From the very beginning of the Church 2000 years ago in Jerusalem the radical nature of the people involved was evident for all to see. They lived their lives devoted to the scriptures, devoted to one-another and devoted to the poor. Consequently what started out as a bunch of misfits in an upper-room soon became a pioneering army, united by the person of Jesus Christ and His saving work in their lives.

At New Community Church we aspire to live as radically as this and by looking at the adventure of those early Christians we are able to glean insight into what it means for us to be pioneering in the 21st century.
