Come join us for VBS 2026, “Kingdom Rock,” beginning June 14-18, from 5:00-8:00 pm. Each evening, we begin with dinner included.
This week’s message, for May 10th, comes from Acts 17:16-34
This morning, we sit under the benchmark of evangelism; the intentional sharing of the gospel, the good news of Jesus Christ. It is one of my favorite passages in the New Testament. My prayer is that we can learn important evangelistic lessons from Paul’s visit to Athens, including what he saw, how he felt, where he went, and what he said. This moment in one of the Apostle Paul’s missionary journeys demonstrates his ability to engage diverse cultural and religious audiences and to present the gospel in a relevant and truthful manner. For Paul and for all of us, the challenge we face today is to answer a skeptical society. In the face of these challenges, our responsibility to honor Christ is rooted in this morning’s first reading from 1 Peter 3:15. Peter writes, “Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect.” For us and the world around us, there is hope of revival in the knowable God. Paul’s conversation highlights the importance of clearly knowing the gospel and encourages us to respond confidently to questions about God and the hope of eternal life.
