Called to live

A disciple called Dorcas demonstrated her faith by caring for and befriending vulnerable widows in her city of Joppa. When she dies, Peter is sent for. Peter prays and calls for her to live and she is raised from the dead.

This week we explore how Jesus calls us to live, sharing eternal life and making a difference in the lives around us.
