Levi Matteson - October 7, 2018
Contextualization
It's one thing for a missionary to dress in the fashion of the local culture to better reach people for Christ. It's another thing to have a small amputation on one of the most sensitive parts of the body to gain admission to a Jewish synagogue. And why do so after such a big deal was made out of needing nothing more than Christ for salvation? Pastor Levi Matteson preaches from Acts 16 about how the Gospel was contextualized to reach nonbelievers for Christ in the early church. This is a podcast of Evangel Church, Houghton Michigan, Sunday, October 7, 2018.
Scripture References: Acts 16:1-40
From Series: "Unstoppable Wave"
Good news travels quickly. In the book of Acts, Jesus’ disciples gathered and set a wave of hope that has continued to gain momentum for centuries. His message is unstoppable. And believe it or not, there are parts of this earth that still haven’t heard the Good News. But He’ll continue using His people to build His Church until everyone who seeks hope is washed over by the Unstoppable Wave of the Gospel.
