Relentless: The Book of Acts

June 10, 2018 • Ronnie Rothe

MAIN POINT:
"To experience God’s relentless power, we must be relentless about being filled with God’s spirit."

CHALLENGE QUESTION:
"Will you become relentlessly devoted to being filled with the Holy Spirit by asking, 'What would you have me do?'"

KEY VERSE:
"When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them." – Acts 2:1-4 (NIV)

SCRIPTURE REFERENCES:
John 16:7, Acts 1:4-5, 8, Acts 2:1-8, Acts 2:11-13, Acts 2:38, Acts 2:41

SERIES SUMMARY:
In the book of Acts in the Bible we learn that the early church - Jesus' first followers - was relentlessly devoted to what Jesus taught them to do. Because of their devotion, this group of ordinary people had a massive impact on the world in just one year. During this 12-part series, as we seek to be people who make a lasting impact on the world around us, we explore the key components of the first church and what it would like look if we lived with the same relentless devotion today.
