Let me paint the picture for you! It’s 97º and you’re sitting on a wrap around screened porch in a white rocking chair. The warm breeze rustles in the leaves of a 100 year old oak, squarely in the middle of the horseshoe driveway. Grandma’s crystal pitcher is full of iced lemonade with large lemon circles. You can hear the ice clinking the crystal glass as she pours the golden nectar. There are probably two cups of sugar in that pitcher, but no one cares, because it's so HOT, even in the shade of the porch! After a moment of silence the stories begin. There is no TV or screen to arrest your attention. The story captivates you and elicits your imagination of what was, and you begin to imagine yourself in the hero’s shoes. A good story has the power to move you, encourage you, strengthen you, and assure you that you CAN!
Luke, the writer of Acts, is doing just that. The setting of Grandma’s porch is exchanged for the 70 AD Middle Easterner, Theophilus’ home. The story of Jesus Christ has flooded the world and Theophilus is hungry for the sequel. Luke is now recording in detail the acts of Jesus through His people so that they might be encouraged to continue telling the story!
For us, the objective is no different. Jesus, Luke, and myself all have the goal of spurring us onward to tell the story of Jesus, His death, resurrection, ascension, and His ongoing miraculous power to shape our lives and our world today!

Pastor Matt McCarter
