Go Into All the World | An Unexpected Encounter, Led by the Spirit

An Unexpected Encounter, Led by the SpiritScripture: Acts 8:26–29 Runtime: ~6 minMost of us don't think of a summer road trip as a mission field. But what if the person sitting next to you in line, or parked beside you at the campground, or reading in the stands at your kid's game — what if that person was exactly who God had in mind when he nudged you this morning? This week we're in Acts 8, watching what happens when an ordinary believer says yes to a very unexpected detour.In this episode:Who Philip was — not one of the Twelve, just a faithful church member. Someone a lot like youWho the Ethiopian eunuch was: a high-ranking government official, likely one of the first Black converts to Christianity, and a man who had been excluded from the temple by Mosaic lawWhy God was already at work in this man's life before Philip ever showed up — and what that means for the people around you this summerWhat it looks like practically to "go up and stay near" when the Spirit prompts you — including a story from Bruce and his wife Tamara at an RV parkReflection: What kind of person do you sometimes hold back from engaging? What might it look like to follow a Spirit prompting toward them this summer?Hear the message for this week's devotional on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@ChristFellowshipMcKinneyGet the written devotional at: https://cfhome.org/EGDIf you are in the North Dallas area and would like to join us for services each week, you can find all the information at https://cfhome.org.
