THE IMPACT OF A CHANGED LIFE

Pastor Aaron Sutherland  

ACTS 8:4-8 "Those who had been scattered moved on, preaching the good news along the way. Philip went down to a city in Samaria and began to preach Christ to them.  The crowds were united by what they heard Philip say and the signs they saw him perform, and they gave him their undivided attention.  With loud shrieks, unclean spirits came out of many people, and many who were paralyzed or crippled were healed.  There was great rejoicing in that city."

I. OUR LIVES CAN BRING ABOUT GOD’S UNITY (Speaker - Tracee Aliotti)

• Our lives can bring about God’s unity
• To bring about God’s unity, remember cohesion and that . . .
  Our humanity is a unifier.
  Start with how we’re the same and build from there.

• To bring about God’s unity, remember adhesion and that . . . 
  Jesus is the great unifier. 
  The most important thing we can “add here” is Jesus

• Acts 8:7 "With loud shrieks, unclean spirits came out of many people, and many who were paralyzed or crippled were healed."
• Just because my prayer isn’t directly answered, does not mean it isn’t directly heard. 
• God never wastes a hurt
