from Calvary Church Podcast · host Dr. Willy Rice
In this week’s episode, The Shepherd and the Showman, Dr. Willy Rice takes us to Acts 8:9–13 and 18–25, where the story of Simon the sorcerer contrasts true faith with a dangerous counterfeit. While many respond genuinely to the gospel, Simon’s story reveals how easily belief can be mixed with wrong motives and misplaced desires.Through this powerful passage, we’re challenged to examine the authenticity of our own faith—looking closely at our repentance, our motives, our agenda, and what we truly value. This message reminds us that faith is not about gaining power or recognition, but about a transformed heart that humbly receives the gift of God.Ultimately, this episode calls us to move beyond appearances and into a deeper, genuine relationship with Christ—one marked not by performance, but by surrender and truth.Support the showFind us at!
