Is anyone beyond the reach of God? In this message we look at the amazing transformation of Saul who was a persecutor of the early Christians. His story reminds us to never quit on people because God can reach and transform anyone.

As the Gospel continues to spread, the Spirit orchestrates an unlikely encounter that will transform the life of a man and take the Word of God to the ends of the earth.

The church scattered becomes the church on mission. Opposition leads to opportunity as God uses disruption to mobilize the entire church, not just a handful and the result is the movement of the gospel to new places and people.

After a great start for the early church, Acts 8 records the devastation a certain Pharisee called Saul wreaks on the church in the wake of Stephen’s execution. Will this persecution and scattering stop the message and mission of the church? How does the church react?

As we continue in our Moving Forward series as we regather and relaunch as a church, we look at the ways God has and will sustain, strengthen and support us despite what’s happening around us.

After looking at all Jesus accomplished on the cross over the past 5 weeks, we now look at the importance of getting this message out to the world. This week we look candidly at what hinders us from sharing this message of good news to those around us.

The resurrection of Jesus is more than a historical event or creedal proposition we affirm. It is personal and the basis for our hope: a living hope grounded in the past, focused on the future, and vital for the present.

Crucifixion was scandalous and certainly not associated with anything celebratory or victorious for the victim. And yet, the early Christians came to see Christ crucified as the ultimate victory of God. How? For who? And what does it mean for us?

As the earliest Christians came to retrospectively understand what was happening at the cross, they came to boast and glory in the cross as God’s wisdom, power and Good News for all. In this message, we begin to unpack that good news, the significance of Jesus death and what it accomplished.
