The Fifth Sermon in a Sermon Series Called ACT II based on Acts 10:34-43
The church is always threatened by divisions—race, income, gender, age, etc. God’s powerful words opened Peter’s mind to the bigness of God’s Church. Could God bring rich and poor, male and female, black and white, young and old into one community of faith today? This message is our prayer that God would do today what he did back then. It’s God’s ACT II. He has a heart to reach the world and give them faith in Jesus – a world full of difference and diversity.

Today we think of how that relates to Christian moms.
What Jesus Stands For
The Third Sermon in a Sermon Series called ACT II based on Acts 7:54-8:1

These are the answers Luke gives us!
