About this episode

Jason and Noel reflect on the church's journey through Acts, discussing key themes and the impact of the One More series.

In this episode of AfterWords, Jason and Noel wrap up the church’s long journey through Acts and reflect on what surprised them most about the One More series, especially the way it captured the imagination of the church and led to more than 200 baptisms (including this upcoming Easter weekend). They talk about the intentionally unresolved ending of Acts, whether Paul ever actually got his audience with Caesar, and why Luke may have chosen to leave the story hanging. The conversation also digs into two of the message’s most compelling ideas: how sin can become something we love too much to let go of, and why the mission of Jesus is sustained not by hype but by ordinary faithfulness. They close by reflecting on Riverview’s deeper sense of calling and the “hope of Israel” that still pulsed through Paul’s heart even in chains.
