Two Sunday’s ago I preached at Gospel Life Church in Madison Heights, MI on the unstoppability of the gospel advance. Drawing on an illustration from my Oregon days I shared how the gospel is like a logging train – nothing can stand it it’s way! From Acts 15 & 16 we saw how the gospel advance overcomes the obstacles of relational difficulties, human planning, closed hearts, demonic powers, persecution, and personal attack. When we realize the Gospel advances on God’s commitment to it, not ours, it motivates us to commit to it’s advance all the more!
We are really thankful for our growing friendship with Gospel life Church. And I think it’s cool how they chose the old Irish way of spelling my name;)
Amen to that, Mike. What an honor it is to be used as an instrument by God to advance the gospel, call sinners to repent and believe and to glorify Him.
Man, it is a big time honor to be serve the Lord & proclaim the gospel. Thanks for praying for us!
