What Now? (Acts) | The Resurrection Community

from Summer Street Church Nantucket · host Summer Street Church

What kind of life are you reaching for? Most of us don't decide. We just look around and start moving toward what everyone else has. In this message from Acts 4:32–5:11, Pastor Derek explores what happens when a community is formed not by the world's values, but by the Spirit of the risen Jesus. The early church didn't just believe differently, it behaved differently. No needy persons among them. Resources released freely. People showing up honestly with whatever they had.But the resurrection community gets tested. The story of Ananias and Sapphira isn't just a warning about lying. It's a diagnosis of something deeper: the belief that what we have isn't enough and the performance we put on to cover that up. The resurrection community doesn't need impressive people. It needs honest ones.This is part of the ongoing series What Now? — a walk through the book of Acts asking what the risen Jesus is doing now, and what we're called to be in response.
