Acts 8 | Eric Hovis | 2/15/26

This week, we continue our series in Acts, Preaching and Persecution. In Acts 8, we see Philip’s faithfulness to share the gospel in Samaria, the apostles’ prayer over the new believers, and their rebuke of Simon the magician’s heart posture.

Pastor Eric shares four points as we work through the text:

1) The Elephant in the Room

2) The First Cross-Cultural Mission Trip

3) The Gift of the Holy Spirit

4) The Motives of the Heart
