Not Cut Off

June 1, 2025 | Acts 8.26-31 | Rob Collis

When Jesus calls us to follow him, he doesn’t strong-arm us into believing a certain way. Instead, he exhorts and invites us to join him in his ongoing work of reconciling all things to himself. As we follow in his ways, we can’t keep on living our lives as though nothing has changed. Jesus intends for us to become his faithful witnesses in the world around us: seeing where he is already at work, and helping point him out to the people around us.

This week, Rob Collis preaches from Acts 8.26-31, which is an instance in the Bible where someone walks up to a random stranger, and starts telling them about Jesus. But when we look closer, we discover he’s just joining a conversation that God’s already been having. Because at the end of the day, God’s the one who’s drawing us to himself – and he invites us to be a part of it.
