    When We Suffer

    When We Suffer
    Acts 15:36 - Paul experienced great success in his ministry. Yet, Paul also knew great suffering. Here we look at Paul's 2nd Missionary Journey and Paul and Silas in prison in Philippi. As we see how they respond to the suffering that ensues we see an important model for when we suffer. Mom's will find particular application as we also explore meaning in the passage for mother's day. Making the decision to have a child is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body.? --Elizabeth Stone

    Led By The Spirit

    Led By The Spirit
    Acts 13:1-3 - Paul and the early church were "led by the Spirit." What did this mean for them and what does it mean for us today? Theologian Gordon Fee says: If you had asked Paul to define what a Christian is, he would not have said, “A Christian is a person who believes X and Y doctrines about Christ,” but “A Christian is a person who walks in the Spirit, who knows Christ.” He wouldn’t have denied the importance of doctrine, but it would not have been the first thing he would have mentioned. (Christian History Magazine-Issue 47: The Apostle Paul & His Times (Carol Stream, IL: Christianity Today, 1995).

    The Road to Emmaus...and Back
    Luke 24:1-36 - Two disciples travel home after the death of Jesus. Jerusalem has been a place of defeat, darkness, and fear and they can't get out fast enough. As they walk they discuss the events of the past couple of days. A stranger comes and when they understand who he is it will change their lives...and the world. What they discover will give them confidence to go back to Jerusalem.
