In this episode, we explore the powerful connection between the books of Luke and Acts, tracing the gospel's trajectory from its focus on Jerusalem out to the rest of the world. We unpack the early church's explosive growth, which was driven not by professional missionaries but by ordinary believers who were motivated by the Holy Spirit and the undeniable reality of the resurrection. We also examine the important distinction between our ultimate purpose of loving God and our adventurous mission to seek and save the lost. Join us as we discuss what inspired the first-century Christians to risk everything for their faith, and discover how modern believers can overcome fear and rejection by embracing the role of a "farmer" who faithfully plants seeds for God to grow.
