The Burden of My Song (Can I Get A Witness Prologue) Southern Reverend
-
- Religion & Spirituality
The gospel arrives from the unlikeliest of places, in the unlikeliest of circumstances, to and from the unlikeliest of people. The stories in this series come from the Book of Acts; they all show the gospel of Christ breaking through barriers and confounding expectations. This good news isn’t unlikely just because of the story it tells, but also because of what the story caused ordinary men and women to do in response.
Readings for each week's episodes will come from the following texts:
Acts 10:34-43
Acts 4:32-35
Acts 3:12-19
Acts 4:5-12
Acts 8:26-40
Acts 10:44-48
Acts 1:1-5, 21-26
Acts 2:1-21
As you read these passages and listen to this podcast, don't be afraid to read the passages that come before and after the Lectionary texts. You might even read the entire book. When you do, you'll be amazed at the shape the early church took and the impact it had on the surrounding world, all because ordinary men and women stood up when asked, "Can I get a witness?"
You can listen and read more from Southern Reverend at www.southernreverend.com or find me on Instagram and Facebook at the handle Southern Reverend.
Y'all have a great week and be good to one another.
