The Church started more than 2,000 years ago when Jesus left the disciples in charge. It seems like something that started that long ago may not have much relevance to us today, but the community that began back then has a lot to teach us about the kind of community we can have today. The Church is the place where we can lean on each other for support and help when we need it; it's the place we can celebrate and mourn together, as one big family. In this 48-week devotional, you'll take a look at the beginning of the Christian community called 'the Church, ' and uncover the countless lessons we can learn from those first Christians. With daily scripture and thoughts, questions to get you thinking, and plenty of space for you to journal your thoughts, you'll find that the Church is more than a building---it's a family. You'll even discover your role in the community of God.
