Rooted Together

In this episode of Rooted Together, we explore the importance of preparing for God's calling. Drawing from Acts 13, we discuss the example of the church in Antioch and how Paul and Barnabas were prepared for their mission. We’ll look at why it’s crucial to take time for spiritual, financial, and intellectual preparation and reflect on how we can apply these lessons in our own lives.

Herod kills James and arrests Peter. We see the church respond in prayer. As they pray God releases Peter using an angel. I want you to notice the humor in the story of Peter and his escape. Let us also see the power of God to overcome all things.

What if we don't like what God is doing? This is the question we must answer in this chapter. When we challenge the gospel movement we are trying to hinder God Himself. This is a fight we do not want and will not win.

In this chapter we ask the question, how could Paul change so dramatically? I hope that you see the answer is that he met Jesus on the road. Meeting Jesus changes everything. How has meeting Jesus changed your life? Take some time today and reflect on that today.

Steven is killed, how will the church respond? Well, they scatter. It is how they scatter that is important. We see the church scatter everywhere, preaching the word as they go. How will you respond to hardship and sorrow?

Steven delivers a weighty sermon to the Pharisees. Will it turn their hearts toward God? Sadly, we know the answer to that question. For us then, the question becomes will we be cut to the heart and repent or will we react in sin?

Faced with threats and arrest, Peter and John found themselves in trouble for the sake of the gospel. Throughout Acts, the gospel rarely provides safe harbors. More often hardships spring up as a result of living and sharing the gospel. What will your response be? #Acts #NewTestament #Gospel #God #Jesus
