Summary

Hey FTG Fam! We're tackling Acts 2 this week and the beautiful, radical way the early church lived in community with the Holy Spirit at the center. As we go through Week 2 of The Wild Invitation Bible study, we reflect on what it truly looks like to care for one another, share life sacrificially, and be on mission together. From funny church traditions we’d ditch to the hard-but-holy call to open our hearts and homes, we get real about what a Spirit-filled community looks like in modern life. We for sure don't have all this figured out, but we'd love you to be on the journey with us!
