Testimony Sunday
from Antioch Waco
This service is grounded in Acts 13, where the church at Antioch, made up of prophets and teachers from different backgrounds, fasts and prays until the Holy Spirit sets apart Barnabas and Saul for a mission, and in Acts 14, where the church later gathers to hear the report of what God did through them. This is where we (Antioch) get our name! Testimonies bring glory to God rather than to any person or ministry, and it strengthens faith, because hearing specific answered prayers reminds the church that God hears and responds when his people call on him. It also passes God's works from one generation to the next, so that what God has done is carried forward by the whole church family, and it stirs the church up to love and good works, turning what could be passive information into an invitation to participate.
