November 2, 2025 Sharing Our Faith: The Gospel | Acts 8:26-40

Today, we will begin a two-week series on Sharing Our Faith. We will begin with reflecting on Acts 8:26-40, The Gospel. It’s shortly after Pentecost and the rapid growth of the church, but it also introduces a time of persecution of those who follow Jesus as the Messiah. Philip finds himself in a town in Samaria, where the gospel news is received with joy, but the Spirit then leads him away from Samaria to a eunuch travelling back home to Ethiopia. This is a gospel encounter. A moment guided by the Holy Spirit where Philip is given the opportunity to share the gospel of Jesus with this official, to help explain how the Scriptures point us to Jesus and how he has redeemed us from sin and calls us into his new life.
