Acts 11:1-18 | Eric Hovis | 4/26/26

Today we continue in our Acts sermon series Borders and Barriers. In Acts 11:1-18, the apostle Peter shares the good news of what happened with Cornelius with the believers in Jerusalem, emphasizing that salvation is offered to the Gentiles as well.

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

1) Discomfort is part of God’s mission (vs. 1-3).

2) God breaks our barriers through God’s Word and by His Spirit (vs. 4-16).

3) Surrendering to God’s mission leads to greater worship.
