Do you ever wonder ig God sees you? Do you wonder whether you matter? Maybe you look successful on the outside but still carry the feeling that you're an outsider, that you lack purpose or that something in your past disqualifies you from being fully known and loved. In Acts 8:26-40, we read about a traveller who was searching for God. He had wealth, influence and success, but he was still asking a deeper question: “Do I belong?” Then Philip enters the story and unveils something incredible: the man thought he was seeking God, but God was actually seeking him. Pastor Kevin Queen walks through this powerful story and reminds us that Jesus came for the one. God sees the people others overlook, pursues the people who feel far away and gives us a place in His family. What has happened to you is not the end of your story. And if you've already been found by Jesus, the question becomes: Are you willing to take the next step and join Him in finding the one?– – – – – – – What stood out to you from this message?

In Acts 8:1-8, the early church faces unimaginable hardship. Stephen has been killed, persecution is intensifying and followers of Jesus are being scattered from their homes. Life is hard, and Scripture doesn't pretend otherwise. But what looks like the end of the story becomes the beginning of something God uses to move the gospel forward. The believers who were scattered didn't abandon their mission. Wherever they went, they shared the good news of Jesus. Philip, an ordinary follower of Jesus, went to Samaria and God worked through his obedience in extraordinary ways. That same invitation is available to us today. It's easy to look at someone else's life, compare our calling to theirs and imagine that life would be easier if our circumstances were different. But as Kevin reminds us, as long as we're fantasizing about somebody else's life, we're not living our own. God has placed you where you are for a purpose. He can move around you, but He would rather move through you. Where might God be calling you to live with greater purpose, courage and urgency today?

8.2.2026 - Acts- The Holy Spirit & the First Disciples - The Gospel Goes to Samaria - Acts 8:1-25 by Anacostia River Church
We look today at the result of the healing of the paralytic and the trial of the apostles Peter and John before the Jewish leaders, seeing Acts 4:1-22 in the light of Exodus 34:29-35; Deuteronomy 13:2-4; Psalm 118; Isaiah 43:11, 45:21-23; Luke 20:1-17; 2 Corinthians 4:4-6; and Philippians 2:5-11. God uses the humility of the fishermen to bring 5000 men (with their families) to the LORD, and makes them “most wise” in their hour of trial.

As we jump back into our series through the book of Acts we spent time looking at the story of Philip being called by God to leave Samaria and go to a desert road. The story is a great reminder that God's ways and His economy is different than ours. For more information visit ChristCommunity.Life

Before moving into Acts 8, we need to discuss the figure mentioned in both Acts 7:58 and 8:1, Saul of Tarsus. Who was this man, and why was he so bent on binding and even killing followers of Yeshua?

Kevin McKay preaches "When The Truth Finds You" from Acts 8:26-40, in this Sunday morning gathering of Grace Harbor Church.
Send Us Your Questions/CommentsPastor Mark is on vacation for July but the Sermon Reflections keep rolling! Jarvis & Nate sit down this week to reflect on Pastor Mark's sermon yesterday from Acts Chapter 8!Grief hits the early church like a wave, and Acts 8 refuses to skip past it. Stephen is gone, the pressure rises, and believers are forced to scatter. We sit with that reality and talk honestly about what it's like when you're trying to walk faithfully and life still hurts.From there, we trace a surprising theme: providential persecution. What looks like setback becomes spread. The gospel moves outward through ordinary people, including Philip, and we connect that to the hard seasons many of us know well: job loss, family change, unwanted transitions, and the kind of disruption that makes you ask what God is doing. We also talk about persistent proclamation and why believers around the world who face real persecution can expose how comfortable faith in America can become.Then the passage gets even more personal. The Holy Spirit's work in Samaria raises questions that require careful Bible study and context, not quick assumptions. And Simon the magician forces a heart check: he “believes” and gets baptized, yet still tries to buy God's power. We wrestle with what true repentance looks like, why religious habit can mimic real faith, and how humility marks a genuine relationship with Jesus.If you want a thoughtful sermon reflection on Acts 8, Christian persecution, the Holy Spirit, and the difference between admiring Jesus and surrendering to him, press play.

“When they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord suddenly took Philip away, and the eunuch did not see him again, but went on his way rejoicing.” John and Brandon study Acts 8:25–40, the Ethiopian eunuch, and what Philip's strange encounter reveals about Spirit-led mission, baptism, and letting go of control in discipleship.
