Digging Deeper~ 5th Sunday after Easter

Acts 17: 22-31: After seeing all the idols to many different gods in Athens. He tells them that he saw an idol to an unknown god. Then he tells them of the real God. 

Ps. 66:8-20:Sing praises unto the Lord who has his eyes on the nations. Sit & hear what the Lord has done to my soul. 

1 Peter 3:13-22:Peter encourages Jesus' followers to stay strong in following Jesus even when people did evil things to them for God would bless them for it. 

John 14:15-21: Jesus promises The comforter to his followers.

In these verses, we read of how Jesus will sent a comforter to his followers to help them be brave enough to follow God & preach the Good news of Jesus to others (John 14:15-21). In the other verses we see how David, Paul, & Peter all shared the Good News to others (Ps. 66:8-20, Acts 17:22-31, 1 Peter 3:13-22). As followers of Jesus, we too need to have the Holy Spirit give us the boldness to tell others of God's great news of the freedom they can have in him. And If we end up going through hard times because of our witness, we should rejoice that God has found us faithful & strong enough to go through that. 

Challenge of the week:

This week, go and tell someone about the great news of what Jesus did for them at Easter. 

Accomplishment of the week:
