Summary

Just because you believe in something does not make it true. Pastor Shane in this message presents us with the challenge of being able to reason through the scriptures to support our beliefs. As we continue our journey through the book of Acts, in chapter 17 we find Paul engaging those in the synagogue located in Thessalonica to consider all of the scripture that points to Jesus being the Christ. Although they may have been familiar with all of the miracles that Jesus performed, they required the support of scripture to be able to accept that He is the Messiah. Pastor Shane confronts us with the need to be able to explain the reasons we have confidence in who Jesus is and what He has done.

Thorstein, like his father Swein before him, is a peaceful Norse settler but brave and ready for battle when the time comes. His adventures as child and man will appeal to younger listeners, while older listeners can enjoy a history lesson into the bargain. W. G. Collingwood, artist and antiquarian, set the story in his adopted home of the Lake District, placing Thorstein's settlement at Greenodd on the southern shores of Cumbria and much of the action among the densely forested valleys and open moorland heights to the north - a much wilder region then than it is today.
