“Expand Thy wings, celestial Dove, brood o’er our nature’s night; on our disordered spirits move, and let there now be light.”
—Charles Wesley
We continue this Sunday with our new series, “FROM JOY, FOR JOY / GOSPEL MISSION,” a ten-month study in the book of Acts. We invite you to prepare for this upcoming Sunday’s service by using this excerpt of our September 25th bulletin below. We encourage you to use the topic, passage, liturgy, and songs for prayer and reflection.
Preaching Passage for this Sunday: Acts 2:1–21
Supplementary Bible Testament Reading: Numbers 11:16–17; 24–30
Song to practice: “Lift High the Name of Jesus”
Reflect:
“The Christian’s life in all its aspects—intellectual and ethical, devotional and relational, upsurging in worship and outgoing in witness—is supernatural; only the Spirit can initiate and sustain it. So apart from him, not only will there be no lively believers and no lively congregations, there will be no believers and no congregations at all.”
—J. I. Packer
