This is the talk from our 10:45 service on 26 April 2026. The readings were Acts 9:20–31 and Galatians 1:11–24.
From Damascus to Jerusalem, Saul’s dramatic turnaround sparks astonishment, opposition and a helping hand from Barnabas. We trace how Jesus—not Paul—is the true creator of Christianity, while Paul becomes his tireless ambassador, preaching, planting and suffering for the gospel he received by revelation. The talk invites us to engage afresh with Paul’s letters: sometimes demanding, often luminous, always rich in Christ-centred wisdom and encouragement. Expect challenge, reassurance and a call to read, rejoice and trust the God whose love in Christ will not let us go.
