In the book of Acts, we see the power of God and the presence of God at work in and through the people of God--the Church. How can this be so? In the past, people could only access God’s presence via a particular sacred space--the Tabernacle, and then later, the Temple. But on the day of Pentecost, God poured out the Holy Spirit, and God’s own personal presence came to dwell within the first Christians themselves. They became portable tabernacles, sent to carry God’s Spirit with them wherever they went. And their story is our story. We are a people unleashed.
