Trouble Within | Acts

The Danger of Pretending: Integrity in the Early Church In this powerful message from our "God on the Move" series, we explore the stark contrast between the radical generosity of the early church and the tragic story of Ananias and Sapphira. While Barnabas (the "Son of Encouragement") exemplified a heart transformed by the Resurrection, Ananias and Sapphira chose the path of "mega-deception." We dive deep into Acts 4:32–5:11 to uncover three marks of a church that truly lives out the reality of Jesus' resurrection: 1. A Heart of Generosity 2. A Life of Integrity 3. A Community that Takes God Seriously Is there a "veneer of holiness" in your life? Are there "copper nails" digging into your conscience? Join us as we reflect on the importance of closing the gap between what we claim and who we truly are.
