Day 48 — Peter Raises Dorcas (Acts 9:36-43) | June 12

Dorcas never preached a sermon, but her funeral became one. She was known for one thing: making clothes for widows. When she died, a room full of grieving women held up the robes she had stitched for them, displaying evidence of love. Peter knelt, prayed, and spoke two words: "Tabitha, get up." She opened her eyes. In this episode, we encounter a woman whose quiet faithfulness shook a city and a miracle that echoes Jesus' own ministry. And tucked into the final verse is a detail that seems insignificant but changes everything: Peter stayed with Simon, a leather tanner. God was already stretching Peter's categories for what comes next.
