Summary of the Message:
Our guest speaker Julie Bullock explores the transformative power of generosity as seen in Acts 2 in her weekend message. She highlights how the early church's generosity was not just about funding the mission but was integral to the mission itself. The message emphasizes that true generosity is gospel-motivated, relational, and focused on eternity rather than earthly possessions. It challenges us to live in community, share our resources, and let our generosity point others to Jesus.
