Abounding Grace

On today’s program, pastor Ed Taylor will take us to Acts chapter eight, starting at verse twenty-six. In this passage of Scripture we learn of a great evangelical work going on in the first century. God is going to use Philip to help another person see Jesus. And God wants to use you and me like this today! To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/302/29

Pastor Ed Taylor is in the middle of a study in Acts called, Be the Church. What is God’s will for my life? Ever asked that question? You’re not alone! I think it’s safe to say virtually every Christian has. And today we’ll give you some help in that discovery process.

Pastor Ed Taylor will continue his study of Acts today. In Acts chapter eight an angel comes to Phillip with a simple message, Arise and go! And Phillip did just that. It’s this immediate act of obedience that we want to key in on with you. God often comes to us with a calling to go, but are we sensitive and open to His leading? And do we obey?

As we continue Ed Taylor’s series in Acts called, Be the Church, we encounter a man named Simon. Judging by outward appearance, some in that day no doubt thought Simon was saved and on his way to heaven. But pastor Ed believes he was a fake believer, and he’ll explain why today.

Pastor Ed Taylor is leading us through Acts, verse by verse, and today’s landing spot is chapter eight, verses six through twenty-five. At this point in time the early church is scattered, preaching the gospel wherever they are sent, and that included Samaria! People were getting saved, lives were being changed, but there was also opposition! To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/302/29

We’re talking about being a good and generous giver today on Abounding Grace. God actually talks quite a bit about how we handle our finances and it says a great deal about our relationship with Him.

We’re in a study of Acts right now with pastor Ed Taylor, a series we’ve entitled, Be the Church! In essence we’re learning how to be the church. And today we’ll hear of a time in the early church when it was being stirred up by persecution. It's reminiscent of how God so often works in our lives. He'll do what it takes to stir us up to move and grow into the person He wants us to be. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/302/29

Following Stephen’s death, as the church’s first martyr, persecution was on the rise. And a name familiar to many of us was consenting to it all Saul! Who later would become Paul the apostle. Thousands of Christians we’re on the run, scattering for their lives! Today pastor Ed will relate this to those times when God will do whatever it takes to stir us up in love and good deeds.

Throughout the years there have been many Christians who have died for the cause of Christ and it’s occurring at an alarming rate right now all over the world! Today on Abounding Grace we’ll recall the very first Christian martyr. While most of us won’t be called upon to die for the faith, we can and should live for Jesus by faith. And pastor Ed Taylor wants us to see that victory in life is ours by faith. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/302/29

Stephen would become the first Martyr of the Church, but not before proving to his Jewish audience that Jesus was indeed the Messiah. Today on Abounding Grace Pastor Ed Taylor will look at the masterful Spirit-led defense that Stephen gave as he was standing before the religious leaders of the day. It’s recorded for us in Acts chapter seven. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/302/29
