Deception and Community

In the early pages of the book of Acts, things are going well for Jesus' church. The Spirit of God has filled the community and empowered them to fulfill the mission of Jesus in the world. But things take a disturbing turn in Acts 5, when a couple people in the community introduce something that could be the undoing of this faith family. 

In this passage, we learn about the importance of trust and honesty in community, and the danger that deception poses to authentic connection and intimacy.
