Andy Talks

Because of persecution, Philip flees and goes to Samaria. First, we see that God can use even hard things, like persecution, to spread the Good News. While there, he is preaching, and many are baptized. But it isn’t until later that they receive the Holy Spirit. This reminds us that as scared as even baptism is, it is not the act, in and of itself, where sacredness comes from, but the Holy Spirit makes the acts, like baptism and communion, truly holy. Let’s always be chasing after the Holy Spirit, above all else in our lives! Join us for our daily reflections with Andy. In 10 short minutes, he'll dig a little deeper into Scripture and help you better understand God's Word.Read our passage here - https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts%208%3A1-25&version=NRSVUEIf you'd like to read a transcript of this episode, click here - https://docs.google.com/document/d/17TScrz2m888FgMZ4m03W4O_2N4jOY8xWXCisTsVblEk/edit?usp=sharingYou can watch this in video form here - https://revandy.org/blog
