Pastor Jonathan Laurie shares a message from Acts 8:25-40 titled “A Conversation in the Desert” at our Sunday Morning Service for Harvest At Home.
Sermon Notes
Aren’t you glad to know that God wants to use you? The Bible is filled with stories of everyday, ordinary, and imperfect characters who God has used to carry out His will. To this day, people like you and me are used by Him, and we each have a specific role to play in His great plan. Today we will be going through Acts 8 and reading the story of Philip, who was called to share the Gospel to an Ethiopian eunuch, who then followed God’s calling for Him without hesitation.
