Sermon – Acts: Risen. Reigning. Reaching: A Job to Do. (Acts 1:1-11)

Read the text – Acts 1:1-11

The new testament begins with 4 accounts of the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. But what happened after? What does it mean for us? In this sermon series, ‘Acts: Risen. Reigning. Reaching’, we look at the next book of the bible which accounts the spread of the Gospel and the mission set before us.
Nick Lindeback speaks on the ascension of Jesus in Acts and the grand mission He left us in this pilot sermon. But He didn’t leave it to us alone, He promised help. Join us as we work through the book of Acts and see God’s plan and mission, and what it means for us two thousands years later.
