Unshakeable Faith In The Darkest Hours

Sunday Livestream
Written By Matt Edmundson

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

  • The talk delves into the trials and tribulations faced by Paul and Barnabas in Acts 14, as they spread the gospel amidst severe opposition.

  • The central point is the unshakable faith of Paul and Barnabas, which remained steadfast even in the face of adversity, serving as a powerful testament to the strength that can be found in unwavering belief.

  • The talk underscores the necessity of enduring hardships in our journey towards the kingdom of God, challenging the notion that trials and tribulations are signs of failure or mistakes.

  • The message is one of perseverance and resilience, encouraging us to remain committed to our faith, regardless of the challenges we face, and to see hardships as integral parts of our spiritual journey towards God's kingdom.

Christianity And The Pursuit Of Happiness: Stephen's Reality Check
Christianity And The Pursuit Of Happiness: Stephen's Reality Check

We carry on our study of the Book of Acts. Today we are looking at Acts 7:51-60, see what we can learn from the story of Stephen, who ends up being martyred for his faith and how that ties in with popular quotes stating that God doesn't just want to give you Jesus but an abundant life too.

Somehow, Stephen found supreme joy in having Jesus, despite facing death. So has Christianity in the West been watered down? Is faith just about personal prosperity and comfort, or rather as a commitment that may involve sacrifice and even persecution?

What about the contemporary interpretation of self-love, has it been distorted to prioritise individual comfort and personal gain rather than denying oneself to follow Christ? Brace yourself for a reality check that is as challenging as it is enlightening.
