Derwood Alliance Church

In this sermon, Mark Trinkl delves into Acts 10, focusing on the encounter between Peter and Cornelius. He emphasizes that God's plan has always been to include all nations and peoples in His salvation, not just the Jews. The story of Peter and Cornelius represents a watershed moment in the early church, breaking down cultural and ethnic barriers between Jews and Gentiles.Mark challenges listeners to consider how they might respond to God working outside their theological understanding or comfort zones. He suggests that, like Peter, we may need a "second conversion" to overcome our ethnocentrism and fully embrace God's work among all peoples. The sermon encourages us to examine what cultural barriers we might be holding onto that could be hindering the spread of the Gospel, and to be willing to let God transform our understanding and practices.#breakingbarriers #transformedbyjesus #jesusforallpeople
