Mark Charles joins Hope Hell's Kitchen to continue our sermon series in the book of Acts. He begins by walking us through the first 20 verses of Acts 10, opening with the foundational statement, "I will say many things that will be disruptive to your faith. We need to learn to not be afraid of that." The rest of his message pushes the hearer to begin to consider the power and the role of the Holy Spirit, and he leaves us perplexed and troubled. But don't worry: he'll address that as he closes out Acts 10 on May 30, 2021. This podcast also includes Pastor Chuck's preparation for the Lord's Table.
