Pentecost | Gifts of the Spirit | Acts 2 | Brendan Fox

Meeting Jesus | The shallow faith of Simon the sorcerer | Acts 8: 9-24 | Brendan Fox

This week, Brendan looks into the faith of a man who had met with Jesus but has not been transformed in the depth of his heart. Brendan further encourages to guard against fraudulent faith which often looks like 1. Faith that is only intellectual 2. Temporary faith 3. Faith based on miracles 4. Profession without relationship Instead we should pursue genuine faith. That is a faith that loves God and loves people. A faith that produces fruit of the spirit and a faith that is dependant on God's grace.

Meeting Jesus | The Ethiopian Eunuch | Acts 8 | Keenan Farquhar

As we continue looking into encounters with the risen Jesus, we engage with encounters in scripture that happened after the. day of pentecost. This week, Keenan walks us through an encounter between the Ethiopian eunuch and God through Phillip. Keenan aptly reminds us through this text and in the words of David Bosch that it is not the church of God that has a mission in the world, but the God of mission who has a church in the world. Some lessons. we learn from this encounter are 1. We can expect God to constantly be at work. 2. We should pray and be expectant of God's Holy disruption. 3. We ought to rest in His finished work. As we learn from this encounter, we ought to also lean in to the Holy Spirit to lead us into an encounter with someone who needs it just as the Ethiopian needed it.
