Study of the Book of Acts part 7

We want to thank all of you that have let us know how much you are getting from this study on the book of Acts.  We hope that you enjoyed the singing and music provided for tonights show by the Keith Franklin family.  It is great to have friends like this who had the forsight while their children were young to record their family like this.  If I am not mistaken they are adding new songs this year to their progression of Chirstmas songs.  We have been feeling a desire for a while now to get more of the word of God out to people in its written context instead of just picking and choosing a verse here and there to make a point.  I am not saying there is anything wrong with a teacher or preacher doing this but I will say that we need a balance if you are ever going to get a clear picture on your own.  At this time we do not plan to do a Christmas show this year but we do want to remind everybody to remember that this is not a happy time of year to everybody.  Many people feel alone, are reminded of loss, look back at errors of judgment that was made in the past, cannot afford a good meal much less buy gifts that in a few weeks most people will forget that you got for them.  We mention this to remind you to be aware of these problems others face this time of the year.  You could provide an act of kindness to someone who is hurting that could save their life!  A kind word or gesture on your part is such a small thing that we forget just how powerful it can be to someone who is hurting.  I think God meant that part in the bible where he tells us to love our neighbor as ourself?  Have you put legs on this part of your life lately?  If you are hearing this show it is not to late.  Okay, lets get back into our study on the book of Acts.
