Just a Little Help Along the Way

We continue with our look into the Acts of the Apostles following the resurrection of Jesus. The disciples are constantly finding themselves in setting after setting where they have to share the news of what happened just a few weeks prior and how the resurrection has impacted their lives. Over and over again their faith is challenged by groups of people who don't have a clue about what happened or are astonished that it did happen.

As they are traveling the roads sharing the unbelievable resurrection story, they meet up with an unlikely character from Ethiopia....clearly the last person their society (or ours today seemingly) would have even a second conversation with. Clearly Philip is reminded that sharing the story of the faith is something that crosses all kinds of chasms and this is one.

We too are reminded that sometimes we all need "JUST A LITTLE HELP ALONG THE WAY" to a clearer understanding of our faith. Where are the places you have found that help? Where are the places that you have offered that help, whether knowingly or unknowingly? Where are the places that we still need to be ready to receive and/or share the Resurrection story?

Series Information

In this sermon series, the story of the early church unfolds before us. Many of the challenges they faced are the same (or very similar) to the ones we face in 2018. Questions around leadership, why we should believe in the first place, who to believe and the age-old question of who is “in” and who should be kept “out”.
