Growing Together

November 1, 2024 • Pastor Travis Voeltz • Acts 4:32–35

In this episode, Pastor Travis delves into the theme of generosity and communal living as depicted in Acts 4:32-35. The episode opens with a parable about a farmer who shares his best wheat seeds with his neighbors, illustrating the benefits of communal effort and improvement. Reflecting on personal experiences of childhood reluctance to share, the speaker draws a parallel to modern attitudes towards sharing resources within the church community. The early Christians' practice of sharing everything, ensuring that no one was in need, is highlighted as a powerful example of spiritual unity and community growth. The episode critiques the contrast between early Christian generosity and today's often individualistic approach, suggesting that true contentment and fulfillment come from sharing and living as God calls us to. Travis concludes by encouraging listeners to embrace a lifestyle of cheerful giving, emphasizing that what we do with our resources can have a lasting impact far beyond our earthly possessions. Through this message, listeners are reminded to live lives marked by generosity and community, reflecting God's grace to others.
