Worlds Colliding – Sermon on Acts 6:8 – 8:40 this Sunday at Orchard

“Two roads diverged in a wood, and I–I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference.” – Robert Frost, The Road Not Taken

We are constantly confronted with choices.  This Sunday’s Sermon on Acts 6:8 – 8:40 is called “Worlds Colliding” and is Part 6 in the series “Acts: The Gospel Mission.”  Throughout the book of Acts we see times when the ways of God collide with the ways of this world.  One of the most dramatic instances of this is when Stephen points out to people who thought they had it all figured out that they were actually entirely missing the point.    Stephen is horribly put to death for standing up for God’s ways.  The early followers of Jesus Christ have to flee for their lives.  But even through all this, God’s way triumphs as the Gospel Mission Continues.  Read Acts 6:8 – 8:40 in preparation for worship this Sunday and spend time in prayer asking God to challenge you through his word.

  1. Yes – in Acts 7:55-56! It is such a great affirmation of God upon Stephen and his willingness to be a witness for Christ even at the cost of his own life.
