Today, some people think of the church as a powerless institution made of ancient traditions and stuffy buildings. They're wrong! The church is the new community of God's people. It's filled with the power of the Holy Spirit. And it has as much to say to the world today as it did two thousand years ago. In Acts, you will discover that God wants to do a fresh work among his people by the power of the Holy Spirit. You will find the pathway to authentic community. You will learn how to grow as a worshiper. And you will deepen your passion to invite others into the fellowship of Christ-followers we call the church. Sound exciting? Let's rediscover church together!

Great Sunday School study,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Acts: Build Community (Paperback)
My Sunday School class has read other Ortberg books. We were looking for a study that would get into Scripture. It doesn't completely cover Acts but pieces of it. The conversation that this study has generated is terrific and as usual for Ortberg, takes you to a higher level.

This review is from: Acts: Build Community (Paperback)
Great discussion in our community group. Confronted (mis)conceptions of the Holy Spirit. Deeper than expected from online book review - much growth for all of us.
