I really liked this - Acts 43 - 47. I was trying to describe it to Beth last night, but it came out sounding like any other ol' place in the Bible.
A deep sense of awe came over them all, and the apostles performed many miraculous signs and wonders. And all the believers met together constantly and shared everything they had. They sold their possessions and shared the proceeds with those in need. They worshiped together at the Temple each day, met in homes for the Lord's Supper, and shared their meals with great joy and generosity—all the while praising God and enjoying the goodwill of all the people. And each day the Lord added to their group those who were being saved.

That's one thing that I've always liked - Christianity has always been a food cult. *grin*
More seriously, I've always liked Acts for its description of the early church, and how people interacted. There's a lot of material that can be applied to our lives.
