Acts chapter 2 paints for us a picture of what the church was meant to look like.So, as we read this description, I want this description to paint a picture, an image, of what God intended for the church. So Acts chapter 2 starts this way (verse 42): “They (the church) devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.” We want to be a praying church. That’s how we want to be known. Not as “the big church” or “the loud Church” (but) we want to be known as “the praying church,” the church that prays. As we look through the scripture today we will see what God has the church to be.
