Devoted, together, daily. Pastor Adam closes the series on regularity, makes an unfashionable defence of religion, and ends with Nicholas Winton — who told nobody for fifty years, until the audience seated around him stood up.

The Greek for “together” carries proximity, not just agreement — they lived near each other. Pastor Adam handles the verse everyone flinches at carefully, then refuses to let the caveat do all the work: do you actually want to be part of a church like that?

Four things the first church devoted itself to, treated as a blueprint rather than a historical note. Back from Israel, Pastor Adam puts the uncomfortable question to his own congregation: ten years in, we have gotten wider — have we gotten deeper?

Paul goes to Jerusalem not knowing what waits, warned in every city. Nic Gilmore preaches it with the question turned on himself, names the problem of suffering rather than stepping around it, and asks whether any of us are on track to finish well.

Peyton Jones preaches Paul’s farewell to the Ephesian elders from inside the crowd — you are an elder now, and you still cannot believe you are a Christian. The hinge is humility, and the difference between being an evangelist and being a witness.
