Simple & True | Acts Series | May 12th, 2024
05/13/24 • 39 min
This past Sunday, we continued our teaching series through the Book of Acts, exploring the strange process by which the apostles selected a successor for Judas Iscariot, Jesus's betrayer. In this passage, we read that Peter believes that the replacement of Judas fulfills Old Testament prophecy, which is why it is so odd that the disciples resort to using such a seemingly random process as “casting lots” to make the decision. This tension reminds us that while God’s plan is intricate and complex, his faithfulness is simple and true. And no matter what we are walking through or are uncertain about, we can count on the faithfulness of God in the grandest plans and the most minor details.

This past Sunday, we explored our fourth and fifth core values at Hope Church- We live like Culture Matters and that the World Needs Hope. As followers of Jesus, we often feel that we are constantly at odds with the trends and forces shaping our culture. However, when we focus on places of overlap with our Christian worldview and engage fully in those areas, we are given an opportunity to tangibly present the Hope of Jesus to the world.
