In this powerful message from Redeemer Church in Midland, Texas, Pastor Jason Hatch explores Acts 11:19-30 and the birth of the church in Antioch—the diverse, missional launching pad for global Christianity. What began as persecution in Jerusalem became a catalyst for the gospel to spread to Gentiles, forming a healthy, messy, generous church that discipled new believers deeply while boldly reaching the lost. This sermon challenges us to move beyond merely attending church to becoming the church—living on mission so that our lives and our congregation reflect the same bold, outward-focused faith that first earned followers of Jesus the name “Christians.”
