The Lame Shall Leap Like Deer

In this episode we read and reflect on Acts chapter 3, where Peter and John heal a man crippled from birth at the temple's Beautiful Gate. The miracle points beyond physical healing to the forgiveness of sins and the church's role as the continuing work of Christ, inviting outcasts into God's presence. The speaker highlights the structure and mission of Acts, the significance of the timing and location of the healing, and how these events mirror Jesus' ministry—showing that the church proclaims repentance, forgiveness, and the gift of the Holy Spirit to all who will believe.
