Breaking Barriers

The more we grow in our faith, the more we can expect to encounter obstacles along the way. At times, we may even face major barriers that threaten to block our spiritual progress and cause us to feel stuck in difficult or frustrating situations. This Sunday, we will spend the second week of our new sermon series looking at a time where being stuck was both a present and a potential reality. As we open up God's Word together, we shall encounter a barrier-breaking God whose heart for His people propels Him to dislodge the obstacles in our hearts and lives that keep us away from Him.I encourage you to read Acts 8:26-40. How do you see the Lord leading Philip and the Ethiopian official in this passage? How do each of them respond to the Lord with faith and obedience? What can this passage teach us about following Jesus today? How will you pray for the Lord to break through a specific barrier, and how can you align your actions and attitudes accordingly?
