We march into eternity under one of three banners. One banner people march under is the "No desire to be a Christian". The second is "Almost a Christian". Last, there is the banner of "Altogether Christian". Which banner are you marching towards eternity under? Can you be an almost Christian and still be saved? The answer is an emphatic, "No!" The gospel of Christ leads us all to make a decision. We are either followers of Christ (Christians) or we are not. How terrible it would be to spend eternity thinking about how you almost made the decision to follow Christ. Paul stands before Festus and Agrippa and forces them to make a decision. Festus has "no desire". Agrippa was "almost persuaded". There is only one way to heaven and Paul shows us how we must be an "altogether" Christian. Please listen as Pastor David explains and challenges us to make this decision in our lives and also encourages us to lead others to make that same decision.

Nearly twenty years ago, the largest study on youth and religion described the religious worldview of youth and young adults as Moralistic Therapeutic Deism. The teenagers and young adults in that study are now the parents of GenZ, which prompts the question, “Is MTD still a good description of youth spirituality?”  Discussion Questions For our listeners who don't know about the National Study on Youth and Religion, could you share an overview of what that was all about and about your role in it?  The most enduring finding from NSYR was Moralistic Therapeutic Deism. What is that, and could you give a few examples of the way it was understood at the time?  How does MTD relate with tolerance culture today?  What are some lessons from NSYR that we continue to overlook today? Your book Almost Christian really struck a nerve when it was released in 2010. What were some of the messages from that book that resonated with people at the time, and how do you see those continuing or changing in youth culture today?  Dr. Kenda Creasy Dean is a youth ministry legend and is Professor of Youth, Church, and Culture at Princeton Theological Seminary. Dr. Dean has written or co-authored a dozen books, most notably Starting Right, The Theological Turn in Youth Ministry and Almost Christian.  Resources Mentioned in this Podcast: Soul Searching, by Christian Smith and Melissa Lundquist Denton Handing Down the Faith, by Christian Smith and Amy Adamczyk Almost Christian, by Kenda Creasy Dean The Polaris Young Adult Leadership Network at Princeton Theological Seminary  

Join us as Pastor Seth Drewry delves into Acts 26, exploring the profound journey from being an “Almost Christian” to becoming an “Altogether Christian.” In this transformative message, we discover that true faith transcends mere appearances. It's a heart-deep commitment to Jesus that impacts every facet of our lives. Whether you're a seeker, a seasoned believer, or somewhere in between, this sermon invites you to embrace genuine faith and experience heartfelt transformation.

Acts 19:1-10. Four Insights About “Almost” Christians.

"Almost” is never a good response when eternity is on the line.  I “almost” made it results in the same destination as it does for the one who was never close. Ron Moore offers warning and encouragement for the “Almost Christian.” He implores you to take that last step into faith and discover the peace and rest you've “almost had” all your life.

Acts 8 describes the fleeing Church out of Jerusalem. And as the people fled they kept the gospel upon their lips. Luke now focuses on two recipients of the gospel, Simon the Magician and the Ethiopian Eunuch. And it doing so he shows the two way the gospel impacts individual lives. One is only almost a Christian and the other is a genuine Christian. Today we look at the almost one.
