A Passion for God1998

Almost 2000 years ago a group of ordinary men and women, just 120 strong but with hearts and lives dedicated to their Lord, brought lasting change and salvation to a lost and ungodly world. ## *How did the early church do it?* ## ## *And how can we follow in its footsteps?* ## The early believers had a *passion for God*—they were filled with Christ's power to do extraordinary things and they transformed their world with the life-changing message of the gospel. In this exciting and surprising journey into the lives of the first-century disciples, you'll discover how to... ## BUILD ## *a passion for God by becoming grounded in God's word, loving people, praying steadfastly, and developing faithfulness* ## SHARE ## *the passion by recognizing God's hand in ordinary situations, leading others to Christ, and discipline new believers* ## GUARD ## *the passion by confronting the opposition, rising above trying circumstances, gaining courage through Christ, and living out your priorities* **Just like the early church, we too can experience the amazing and practical power of the Holy Spirit when a passion for God burns bright in our lives.**
