Athens
What happens when the message of Jesus meets a world that thinks it already has all the answers? In the third installment of "Paul's Travels," Pastor Sarah follows Paul into Athens, a city full of idols, philosophers, and brilliant minds searching for meaning. When Paul spots an altar dedicated to an unknown god, his quiet layover comes to an abrupt end. Brought before the scholars of Mars Hill, he doesn't argue or lecture. Instead, he plants a seed, pointing these intellectual seekers toward the one true God they've been circling around all along.
Drawing on the moving story of a man named Junior, Pastor Sarah explores the difference between belief and faith, and why the journey from head to heart sometimes takes a lifetime of fumbling, grieving, and searching. Based on Acts 17, this sermon is a reminder that no matter how long or crooked the road, God is never far away from any of us.
