The conversion of Saul of Tarsus is one of the most well documented conversions in all of Scripture. On the Damascus Road, Saul was transformed from a persecutor of the church to a promoter of the gospel. In Saul’s conversion we see a demonstration of the patience and power of Jesus that is given as an example to each of us to encourage us in our faith and witness.

Conventional Christianity
Acts 15:1-41 | Mon, Sep 01, 2008 | Pastor John Stillman

In this message, Pastor John discusses a practical approach to Christianity that honors Jesus and other Christians.

Good news breeds good deeds.

Acts 8:26-40 | Mon, Jul 14, 2008 | Pastor John Stillman
