Has the church adopted something of celebrity culture expecting one person or a small handful to do everything? Do we need to release more people into service? Acts 6 is a lesson in releasing more people into the leadership and care of the church. #portstewartpresbyterian #presbyterianireland #acts
Why do our churches today struggle to impact our communities in the way the church in Acts impacted Jerusalem? Is it because our priorities are wrong? In Acts the church prioritised Jesus, trust in God and the truth. #portstewartpresbyterian #presbyterianireland #portstewart #acts
Is the church struggling to have an impact on the world because Jesus has been removed from the centre and prayer from the heart of the church? #portstewart #presbyterianireland #acts #PortstewartPresbyterian
When we read stories like Peter and John healing the man at the temple gate, the question I’m always left with is, where has our confidence in God gone? Why is it we read these stories in scripture, but we don’t see them happening or hear them being talked about in our churches today? Why do we not have the same confidence that Peter and John displayed when they walked up to this crippled man and said, ‘in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.’
