6 Catalysts of the Early Church | Ron Merrell
About this episode
Pastor Ron Merrell discusses the catalysts that launched the early church and their relevance today.
What launched the early church into a movement that changed the world? In Week 1 of our Lift Off series, Pastor Ron Merrell teaches from Luke 24:36-53 to show how Jesus’ post-resurrection appearances and ascension sparked the lift-off of the early church and how those same catalysts still empower believers today. Jesus met His followers with peace, strengthened their faith, opened their minds to Scripture, gave them a message to share, and promised power from on high. Those catalysts were crucial to the early church, and they are still crucial for the church today. This sermon will help you understand how gathering with other believers, receiving the peace of Jesus, learning the Word of God, being opened by God to truly understand, and living as a witness all work together in the mission of the church. If you want deeper confidence in your faith, clearer understanding of Scripture, and renewed purpose in God’s mission, this message points to the same Jesus who launched the early church and still leads His people today. Scripture: Luke 24:36-53, Matthew 28:19-20 #Liftoff #6CatalystsOfTheEarlyChurch #PastorRonMerrell #Luke24 #EarlyChurch #ConnectionPointeChurch NEXT…
