Easter 5

Acts 11.1-18

Seeing the extraordinary in the ordinary - Week 5 of 8

Eight weeks in which we find in the Acts of the Apostles Luke’s understanding of what it means to encounter the risen Christ.

Step by step

This week Peter changes his mind.

This week's reading, Acts 11.1-18, provides us with an opportunity to:

  • learn to interpret our experience of faith and allow it to impact our behaviour (AAA)
  • appreciate how Peter interprets his own experience and changes his behaviour (AAA & CYP)
  • see how Peter’s example of prayer encourages us to be inclusive and welcoming (AAA & CYP).

These resources were first published in Issue 64 March/April 2013.
