Exhortations from Antioch

Observing the Church in Antioch

To understand where we are today, we must understand where we’ve been. Pastor Eric’s sermon from Acts 11:19-30 takes us to the place where Jesus’ disciples were first called Christians—the church in Antioch. This church was full of ordinary people doing extraordinary things. Pastor Eric observes aspects of their leadership, evangelism, and generosity to teach us a bit about who we are as Christians and why we do many of the things we do today. What’s more, we are exhorted to follow their example and remain faithful with steadfast purpose.
