Through the Resurrection of Jesus and the gift of the Holy Spirit, God has freed us to be a new kind of people who live a different kind of life together. This life is one of growth into people who reflect the image of Jesus to the world in what we do and say. It's also a life where we get to choose to either embrace the changes that God will use to grow us, or run back to the comfort of what we've always done and end up living a lesser version of the story of life God has created, Jesus has freed, and the Spirit has empowered us to live.

Questions for Reflection:
• Have you ever been part of a group that felt "united" like Luke's description of the followers of Jesus in Acts 4:32?
• Which of Brad's practical steps (Who, Do, New) do you think will be the most difficult or easiest for you to practice this week?
