    Why was it said that the Acts church "turned the world upside down?" How can we have that said about us?

    Turning the World Upside Down Acts 17:1-10 It’s safe to assume that almost everybody here has heard or read about the great revivals of old.

    based on 31 ratings

    Christians are more and more known for what we are against than what we are for. This confuses people about what the gospel is really about. Paul gives some very practical advice on how to be practically spiritual in an unsaved world.

    How can we sum up Titus? It’s as simple as 1-2-3. 1. Find a good Biblical model and follow it (chapter 1) - Personal Faith 2. Allow yourself to be inconvenienced in order for the gospel to be attractive (ch 2) - Interpersonal Example 3. Seek to cooperate and assist others around you by being a ...read more
