Stones and Statues - When the Gospel brings Disruption

This sermon on Acts 13–14, explored how the gospel didn’t just challenge religious assumptions, it disrupted the political and social order of the ancient world. As Paul and Barnabas proclaim salvation to the Gentiles, their message threatens the fragile arrangement between Rome and the Jews, provoking hostility from every side. But behind the upheaval is a deeper truth: God was dismantling the old scaffolding of empire to build His unshakable kingdom and to show His people (again) that our trust is not in horses or chariots, but in the name of the Lord our God.
