Stepping Out Beyond the Door | Chris LaTondresse | Acts (2013) | April 30, 2017

from Church of the Open Door Sermon Archives · host Worship

We're jumping from Acts 13, where Barnabas and Saul were sent out by the Antioch elders on the first missionary journey, to their return and the reports of how God extended the kingdom among the Gentiles. The debate and dissension over whether these new believers should be circumcised led to the Acts 15 Council of Jerusalem, where church leaders came to some astonishing, “didn’t-see-that-coming,” conclusions. Chris LaTondresse will take us through this surprising passage, challenging us to wonder, as those first-century followers of Jesus had to, about the non-negotiables of our faith – and what things might no longer be non-negotiable – so that others might be able to enter in without boundaries or barriers.
