The apostle Paul knew what he was here for. He knew what he was commissioned to do, and by whom he was commissioned.Do we know where we are going, and what we are striving for? What is the personal mission God has for our lives?In this episode we examine Acts 20:24, where Paul says the following, "However, I consider my life worth nothing to me; my only aim is to finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me—the task of testifying to the good news of God's grace."Follow along with the PDF here: https://tinyurl.com/NOLPDFTWOFollow BenInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/nzbenpierceFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/nzbenpierceFollow CourtneyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thecourtneypierce/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CourtneyAndersonPierceFollow JodiInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jodi__pierce/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ania.greenwoodFollow AniaInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/aniagreenwood/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ania.greenwood
Does relevance automatically equal compromise? In today's culture it might seem like that's the case, but biblically speaking relevance is simply an ability to communicate the truth in a clear way to your audience. In theme 12 we walk through Acts chapter 17 and Paul's arrival in Athens, observing his relevant demonstration of the Gospel to both Jews and Gentiles.

We often fall guilty of not preaching the whole gospel, or presenting it in such a way that repels people instead of drawing them toward God. How do we stay in the middle of these two tendencies - presenting the fullness of the Gospel in grace and truth?In theme 10 we look at three different reactions to the preaching of the gospel that Paul and Barnabas encountered during their travels, beginning with acts chapter 13: 42-45Follow along with the PDF here: https://tinyurl.com/NOLPDFTWOFollow BenInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/nzbenpierceFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/nzbenpierceFollow CourtneyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thecourtneypierce/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CourtneyAndersonPierceFollow JodiInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jodi__pierce/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ania.greenwoodFollow AniaInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/aniagreenwood/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ania.greenwood

What are the things in our lives that we have accepted as, "just the way it is"? Are there things we need to challenge; things we need to seek God about until they change?In theme four, Ben and the regulars unpack Acts 3:6 and ask what it can teach us about the status quo's we accept in our own lives as believers.
