FOUR MARKS OF A HEALTHY CHURCH

In this exposition of Acts 2:42-47 Chris Boraston explores the four defining characteristics of a healthy Holy Spirit-powered church. The transformative events of Pentecost led to profound changes in the lives of the 3000 who believed in Jesus as the Messiah, creating a closely knit community of believers devoted to learning, fellowship, breaking bread, and prayer, four pillars that enabled the early Christian community to remain steadfast and grow under th divine influence and power of the Holy Spirit. Here is a call to action for us to imbue our own church life with the four vital characteristics of a Spirit-filled church, grounded in scripture.
