Athens & The Areopagus
Reader: Danita O'Loughlin Preacher: Jonathan Smith Paul in Athens doesn't begin with Abraham or Moses. He begins where his audience is - their religious instinct, their altar to an unknown god, their poets - then moves from what they already sense to what they don't yet know: a God who made...
-
Thessalonica and Berea
Reader: John Hargrave Preacher: Jonathan Smith In Thessalonica, Paul reasons from Scripture that the Messiah had to suffer and rise, and that Jesus is that Messiah (v.3). Some are persuaded; others form a mob. The charge against Paul's community - these people who've turned the world upside down...

The Slave Girl; The Earthquake; The Jailer
Reader : Amy Caruana Preacher : Jonathan Smith First we meet a girl who is doubly enslaved - owned by men who profit from her, and possessed by a spirit that speaks through her. When Paul commands the spirit out in the name of Jesus, her exploiters don't rejoice at her freedom; they calculate…

Timothy; The Macedonian Call; Lydia | Acts 16:1-15
APOLOGIES: THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH PARTS OF THIS RECORDING. Some of the sound is indecipherable. Reader : Danita O'Loughlin Preacher : Jonathan Smith This passage is full of surprising turns. Paul circumcises Timothy - the same Paul who just fought at Jerusalem against circumcision as a…

Romans 12

-
Jonah
Reader: Esther Hudson Preacher: Josh Hennessy Regularly we look at the Book Of Jonah and think it's about a prophet and his rebellion against God. This is partially true. It's a reflection on us all, where we also rebel against God. However, the real story of this book is God's sovereignty. Even...

-
Acts 11:19-30
Antioch shouldn't have happened. The unnamed disciples who travelled there after Stephen's death were scattered refugees, not apostles. Yet a church was planted and something amazing took root: a community so visibly different that the watching city came up with a new name for them: Christians....
