Acts 16:1-10

The Christian life is full of wounds and scars.  It could be that you’re hit with financial hardship, or a health crisis.  Today on According to the Scriptures we’ll learn that someone is always watching at such times, and our scars and how we respond to them can actually inspire someone.  Such was the case for Timothy, who observed the apostle Paul’s stoning! Pastor Damian Kyle will show us while Paul was suffering, Timothy was observing and it had an impact on his life in a great way.  We’re in Acts sixteen.

What a blessing it is to have good and godly friends, who will stand by our side through thick and thin and encourage us in the ways of the Lord.  And though we might be different in temperament and personality, we love them none the less.  Can you think of someone in your life that fits that description?  Today on According to the Scriptures pastor Damian Kyle draws attention to a precious friendship and relationship between Paul and Timothy.  It all began in Lystra.  

A follower of Christ is at the right place at the right time. Where is the right place? It’s in God’s presence that we have fullness of joy, and where our path is determined. When is the right time? The right time is to be in God’s presence, all the time.

The making of a follower is to be like the disciple Timothy, well spoken of even though he came from a broken home. Timothy was able to let go of the past, delight himself in the Lord, and have a hope for the future.

God uses a variety of things to get our attention and give direction. He might supernaturally use a phone call, a chance meeting, or a distasteful experience. In the message “The Fork in the Road,” Skip considers how God guides and directs His people.

Some things in life that seem difficult or confusing at the time may actually be God redirecting our steps. In the message “The Fork in the Road,” Skip considers how the Lord guided the apostle Paul in his mission to spread the gospel.
