Summary: Fr Gabriel looks at the communitarian spirit and life of the early church as depicted in Acts. This sub-text in the book makes us ponder the meaning of community in this day and age, particularly as we confront the trials of negotiating a Christian path through an increasingly secularized world. The book referred to in the homily is Rodney Stark's The Rise of Christianity.
