Acts: The Mission Continues
Part 10: When life squeezes you...

Text: Acts 7:54-8:3

When life squeezes you, what comes out? For Stephen, it’s mercy–praying for the very people killing him. The religious leaders answer it too, gnashing their teeth in a fury so dark Luke's language echoes Jesus' own description of Hell. Same pressure, opposite fruit—because what's inside determines what spills out. Is Hell or the Holy Spirit filling you, and how would you know? Because the real work isn't done in the moment of the squeeze—it's done long before it ever comes.

Whenever someone goes in the hospital, has a medical crisis, or health concern that the pastor and church need to know about please contact Sherri Appleby at 478-972-9775 for Gray or Chris Smarr at 478-447-2379 for Clinton.
