Peter Preaches to the Gentiles: Acts:10 (Sunday 7/25/21)

Video (Watch) Audio (Listen) In Acts 10, Peter and Cornelius are two men that pray.  Peter is shown in a vision that he should not call unclean things that God made clean (meat and gentiles).  Peter resisted at first, but then went to preach the gospel to the gentiles.  We should learn from this to pray and to step out when God says to step out.

The Jews celebrate with feasting and gladness as they vanquish their enemies all over the region. They establish the holy day of Purim to celebrate the time that Esther successfully petitioned the king and order all generations of Jews to celebrate that day each year.

The Power of God: Acts 8 (Sunday 6/13/2021)

Video (Watch) Audio (Listen) In Acts 8, Saul approved of the stoning of Stephen and was a persecutor of the church. This action was legal and applauded, much as today’s abortion is legal and applauded. People were dragged out of their houses. When the church was spread they continued to teach the gospel. God uses the evil intended for good.
