Chapter 28: They Told Someone

Scripture:  Acts 1:1-11

Speaker:  Scott Meyer

Summary: Scott reflects on the things we often take for granted, highlighting how we only realize their value when they're suddenly gone, like electricity. He emphasizes the miracle of being present today, worshiping Jesus, which ties into the story of the early church's launch in Acts. Jesus, after His resurrection, teaches His disciples, urging them to wait for the Holy Spirit's power to be His witnesses, not just informed but empowered. Scott challenges the idea that witnessing is for "professional Christians" and encourages everyone to share their personal testimony of what Jesus has done in their lives. Ultimately, the message is that ordinary, imperfect people empowered by the Holy Spirit can carry out Jesus' mission, spreading the gospel through an unbroken chain of witnesses, just as it has reached us today.
