In Acts 13, Paul and Barnabas leave Antioch for the first missionary journey. They face down a sorcerer and win a Roman Governor to Christ in Cyprus, and Paul also preaches his first recorded sermon (it’s remarkable). The early church also displays remarkable joy in the midst of displacement and persecution.
Big Idea: The early church carried the gospel throughout the known world in approximately 30 years and transformed an empire in 3 centuries. Now the church seems intimidated, uncertain amidst swift cultural changes. So, what did the early Christians, commanded by Christ and empowered by the Holy Spirit, do that we are not doing? Here are their Acts, and may they inspire our own.
