In this episode, we trace God’s promise to Abraham—“In you all the families of the earth will be blessed”—and watch it come to life in Acts 10. Through a trance, a vision, and an unexpected Gentile seeker, God shows Peter that the barriersseparating Jew and Gentile are coming down. The sheet, the Spirit, and the arrival of Cornelius’ men reveal that God’s plan has always included all of us.

In this moment, the door of the kingdom opens wide, fulfilling a promise made two thousand years earlier. Join us as we explore how God orchestrated people, timing, and revelation to welcome the world into the family of Christ.
