This weekend, we welcomed back Pastor Josh Whitlow. A lot has happened since his family relocated to Arizona to launch Purpose Church. In just two years, they've already seen over 300 come to faith in Christ and 130 baptized! We've been cheering them on from afar, and we're thrilled to have him back with us to bring a powerful message on prayer.As we step into Church Week, this message challenges, encourages, and reminds us that when we call out to God like a child running to a loving father, something truly powerful is released. Let's look at Acts 12 to see what can happen when the church prays!Website:www.experienceredemption.comFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/experienceredemptionInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/experienceredemption

What kind of church do we want to be – a place where people are truly known, accepted, and led by the Holy Spirit? In this compelling sermon, we explore how persecution has shaped the early church and continues to define our response to opposition today. Facing hostility and mistreatment because of faith is nothing new for Christians, but how can it propel us forward rather than hold us back? How can we reimagine our response to persecution to align with the mission and purpose God has for us? Discover how persecution, while daunting, is an opportunity rather than an obstacle. By embracing persecution as a blessing, we align with the early church's legacy, displaying the love, humility, and courage of Christ. Through scripture, we will uncover how God uses adversity not to silence His Word, but to catalyze it across nations and hearts. Join us as we dive into Acts 7 and 8, understanding that each act of faith amidst persecution serves as a testimony to God's unwavering power.**Key Takeaways:**1. **Persecution is Not New**: Recognize that opposition is part of the Christian journey. Jesus Himself warned us, and history reaffirms the resilience of God's people. 2. **God's Plan is Unstoppable**: No amount of persecution can derail God's divine plan. When facing hostility, remember that God is still in control, using these moments to advance His kingdom.3. **Persecution as a Blessing**: Embrace persecution not merely as a hardship to endure but as a divine opportunity to display Christ-like love and virtue to a watching world.**Scripture References:**- John 15:18-20- Acts 7:54-60- 2 Timothy 3:12- Philippians 3:10- Matthew 5:10At 2Rivers, our mission is to help you become a passionate follower of Jesus so you can experience the life He intended for you and encourage others to do the same.
