Model Children of God - Pastor Johnnie Simpson Jr.


Listen in as we explore the inspiring account of the early Christian community in Acts 4:32-35, discussing how their example of unity and sharing parallels with the modern-day church's response to societal upheavals, such as the aftermath of George Floyd's death and the COVID-19 pandemic. I reflect on how churches across denominations, including the United Methodist Church, are navigating the new reality and re-engaging their congregations. We also delve into the practicalities and spiritual responsibilities of the church, examining how the foundational principles of the early church can inform our identity and practices today.

Join me as we ponder the critical role of sharing God's grace and love within our communities. Drawing on the contrast between the bustling life of the Houston metropolitan area and church attendance, we discuss the importance of outreach and creating authentic fellowship. The episode highlights the early apostles' boldness in faith and challenges the church to make a meaningful impact. I extend an invitation to know Christ and experience the transformative power of His forgiveness, wrapping up with a prayerful blessing and a call to engage with the conversation across social media platforms.
