The church is whole when it is one in heart. But the church's heart can be broken by deception. Are you breaking the church's heart or mending it?

1. Broken Heart / Acts 5:1-11
Horton Road Church of Christ
March 7, 2010

2. One heart
The church in unity

3. Acts 4:32-34
All the believers were one in heart and mind....
And God's grace was so powerfully at work in
them all that there were no needy persons
among them.

4. Create one heart through sincerity,
love, and service

5. Broken heart
The church destroyed by deception

6. 1 Corinthians 5:6
A little yeast leavens the whole batch of dough.

7. Are you that destructive yeast?

8. Mend the church's broken heart

9. 1 Corinthians 5:7
Get rid of the old yeast, so that you may be a new
unleavened batch—as you really are.... Therefore
let us keep the Festival, not with the old bread
leavened with malice and wickedness, but with
the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

10. Become unleavened without yeast
by focusing on sincerity and truth

11. Are you breaking the church's heart
or mending it?
