The book of Acts contains a stack of sermons, teachings and addresses to councils and rulers. What can we learn about how the message of the good news was delivered to each of the different audiences. How did the content change? What did the person sharing do differently? What about the role of signs and wonders? And, how did each of the audiences respond? Did they receive the message favourably or resist it?
Should our message cause offence to our audience?
THIS WEEK we study two key messages:
1. Peter speaking to the Roman Cornelius' household
2. Paul speaking in Athens to a pagan audience
