Centered & Sent David Simfukwe

Hello everyone! Welcome back to the centered and sent podcast. I'm your host, David Simfukwe, and thank you for joining us on our journey to live our live Jesus Centered and Sent. Today, Phillip Simfukwe, my older brother is going to speak on Acts 15.

Chapter 15 is about this one argument “Unless you are circumcised, according to the custom taught by Moses, you cannot be saved.” Paul and Barnabas argued heavily against this because those false prophets were trying to mix Moses's law with the gospel and mislead people. This resulted in a letter being written to the gentiles by the (Christian) council.

Lets jump in a small argument between my grandmother and Darren (A.K.A. Deuce). Hope you guys enjoy this discussion and God bless!

Hello hello! Welcome back to the centered and sent podcast. I'm your host, David Simfukwe, and we're continuing to live our lives Jesus Centered and Jesus Sent. Today, our sister Rachel will be discussing Acts chapter 14. We even have a special guest, Kambuza (our cousin) visiting from Michigan! She has the very distinct voice…

Acts 14 goes over Paul and Barnabas's Journey through Iconium, then they stop by Lystra and Derbe, and come back to Antioch in Syria. Specifically in Lystra, Paul sees a lame man (born not able to walk) and heals him similar to how Jesus did previously by commanding "stand up on your feet" after seeing his faith. The people thought Paul and Barnabas were gods (small g), unfortunately. We'll see how the two apostles responded to this.

Now here's Rachel to take it away but first, lets check in with everyone and see how their weeks have been. Hope you guys enjoy and God bless!

Hello hello! Welcome back to the Centered & Sent podcast. I'm still your host, David Simfukwe. And we're still living our lives Jesus Centered and Jesus Sent. Today, Deuce (or Darren) is going to talk about Acts Chapter 10, where we first me Cornelius and go over his journey with Peter. We then see an important vision that Peter has regarding cleanliness and Jesus checks his heart right in front of our eyes….imagine a direct heart check from the son of God!

Anyway, hope you guys enjoy and God bless!

Hello hello! Welcome back to the Centered & Sent podcast. I'm your host, David Simfukwe, and we're still living life Jesus Centered & Jesus Sent. Today, I'm gonna talk about Acts Chapter 9. One of the most pivotal points in the bible, Saul's conversion to Paul. Saul used to persecute Christians. He ordered the killing of many Christians and just outright hated them. But he was met on the road to Damascus by Jesus and that's when his conversion began.

Without this conversion, we wouldn't have gotten half of the new testament because Paul wrote the letters to the churches! Then again, God could've made a way for them to be written.

Anyways, here's our discussion on Acts Chapter 9. We'll start off with some wins for the week. Enjoy and God bless!

Hello everyone! Welcome back to the centered and sent podcast. I'm your host, David Simfukwe, and we're still on our Journey to live our lives Jesus Centered & Jesus Sent. Today's bible study will be on Acts chapter 7 (led by Phillip) where Stephen gives a very powerful speech to the Sanhedrin, which were the Jewish religious, legislative and educational body of the land. Then the chapter ends with Stephen's stoning to death but not without God's glory being shone.

And Acts chapter 8 (led by Abby) goes over the persecution of the church in Jerusalem after Stephen's death and Philip's journey through multiple areas to spread the gospel.

I hope you guys enjoy this episode, and God bless!

Hello everyone! Welcome back to the Centered & Sent podcast. Today, Abby and Henry are going to lead Acts chapters 5 and 6 respectively.

Acts 5 is about Ananias and Sapphira, a couple who lied directly to the Holy Spirit about giving all of their offering. Spoiler alert, there are dire consequences for lying to the Holy Spirit, just don't do it! The apostles then heal many and preach the gospel. Acts 6 is about Stephen, who is described as "a man full of God's grace". This chapter starts his story of martyrdom for his faith.

Please enjoy and God bless!
