God Is Not Far From Us
December 10, 2023 • Shad Baker • Acts 17:22–34
God is not far from each one of us! God wants us to 1. Seek, 2. Reach, 3. And Find him. Like a father playing hide and seek with his daughter, God wants us seek Him and find Him. This passage urges us to Reason with our minds, Repent with our hearts, and Respond to the good news of Jesus! Visit us at http://cefc.church
The Best Response
December 3, 2023 • Shad Baker • Acts 17:1–21
Acts 17:1-21 compares the way two different communities (the Thessalonians and the Bereans) responded to the message about Jesus. The response of the second community teaches us to receive the message of Christ with eagerness, while also checking to make sure that the message we hear matches with the message we read in the Bible. What is our attitude and our response toward the message of Jesus? Pray that God gives us the grace to have the same noble response as the Bereans! Visit us at http://cefc.church
When Commerce Hates Christianity
November 12, 2023 • Shad Baker • Acts 16:16–24
Sometimes commerce hates Christianity! Christ is a threat to every rival power, whether the power of money or the power of demons. In Acts 16 a young woman is set free from demonic oppression but many men choose to remain in bondage to financial gain. The Bible teaches that we cannot serve God and money. We must choose to either accept or reject the power and truth of Christ. What will we choose? Visit us at http://cefc.church
