See this content in the original post

Here’s a summary of this week’s sermon:

  • The talk delves into Acts 5, focusing on verses 27-42, where Peter and John are arrested and brought before the Sanhedrin for preaching about Jesus.

  • The central point is the importance of obedience to God, boldness through the Holy Spirit, and finding joy in the face of trials and persecution.

  • The talk emphasizes the transformation that comes from a personal encounter with Jesus, leading to unwavering obedience and devotion despite the challenges.

  • The message inspires hope and encourages believers to deepen their faith, experience the boldness of the Holy Spirit, and find joy in overcoming life's obstacles through their relationship with Jesus.

💬 CONVERSATION STREET --

Matt + Dan discuss:

  • What do you think was going through Peter and John as they stood and spoke before the Sanhedrin?

  • The same Holy Spirit that changed Peter and John changes us now. How?

  • How were Peter and John able to go out rejoicing after being flogged? What would your response have been in their place?

  • Being misjudged is not a pleasant experience but having the courage to carry on is a much better adventure. How?

  • What do you think of this statement - God never promised us a safe journey, only a safe arrival?
