From the temple as a symbol to the church of Christ: God’s presence, the Apostles, and unity are its identifying features—and these are the themes of the Sunday services in August.

Gloom, an inner emptiness, and worries: the longing for joy is great. The Chief Apostle reveals where the key to true joy lies—and what prevents us from experiencing it.

Jesus’ guiding principle: to lift people up! Then as now, Christ reaches out His hand, helps us to our feet, and encourages us to be a light for others. 

How can we reach heaven? Or, to put it another way: how can one achieve perfect harmony. The brother of the prodigal son shows how not to go about it. In a divine service, the Chief Apostle shows how it’s done.

Repetition always helps, clichés create a comforting sense of familiarity, and the symbolises authority—or maybe not? “The Sermon” module on nac.academy challenges familiar assumptions.

Who will enter heaven? Jesus gives a surprising answer by pointing to a celebration, an open door, and a person who refuses to go in. The video from a divine service with the Chief Apostle.

Encountering Christ … Just as it was for the disciples in their day, Christ’s presence is still a source of peace, joy, and hope today. Everyone who accepts His invitation will experience His nearness.

Longing, fears, and liberation: three timeless themes that find expression in well-known petitions. These form the foundation for most of our Sunday services in July.

The same words and gestures repeated time and again—there is an underlying order to them. “Liturgy” is the term used to describe the principle that conveys God’s consistent care. Here is more about the divine service, its form, and how things have changed over time.

Faith, fellowship, and new beginnings define the third issue of the community magazine. From Pentecost to new projects and spiritual reflections, this edition has lots to offer.

As Israel stood before God’s judgement seat filled with fear, something marvellous happened: God did not condemn His people. Instead, He restored their courage through His help, strength, and nearness. 

John the Baptist had but one mission: to proclaim the coming of another. That is why Jesus called him the greatest. What, then, does this mean for us today in how we profess our faith?

Anyone who asks for greater faith has not considered the potency of the mustard seed. Sometimes the impossible begins exactly where you stopped fighting against it.

Anyone can pray, but a prayer in a divine service is more than a personal conversation with God. How are these prayers different from private prayers? A module on nac.academy provides answers to this question and more.  

Imagine coming to a beautifully set banquet table and every seat seems to be taken. You look around, hesitate for a moment, and wonder, “Is there still room for me here?” 

The diversity of the Church is its treasure. And everyone can contribute to this in their own way. “Join us,” urged Chief Apostle Helper Helge Mutschler during the Pentecost service

A fire that burns but does not consume—that is God’s infinite love. But the question is, how can we experience His love and care in a very personal way today?
