    This message looks at the problem in Acts 11:1-18 of those in the early church focusing on the wrong aspects of what took place there.

    This sermon follows the progression of Acts 11:19-26 and identifies 10 things we should be aware of today. I used train illustrations with the 10 words.

Exclusion – v. 19b – Often we like the early Church miss the point that the gospel ...read more

THE GREATEST NEWS ABOUT FAILURE IS THAT FAILURE IN AND OF ITSELF IS NEVER FINAL. YOU CAN LEARN GREAT LESSONS FROM FAILURE IF YOU ARE ...read more
