BREAKING THE BOX

What does it take to stop a church that's moving in the power of God? This Sunday, we discovered that one of the greatest threats wasn't persecution from the outside—it was legalism from within. As we continued our series No One Is Beyond Reach through Acts 11, we saw how God's grace kept breaking down every wall people tried to build.

Through the early church and the life of Barnabas, we learned that legalism adds to what Jesus has already finished, creates division where God intended unity, and places burdens on people that Christ never asked them to carry. But grace changes the way we see others, ourselves, and the future God is calling us into.

We were reminded that grace doesn't just save us—it transforms us. When we stop striving to earn God's favor and begin resting in what Jesus has already done, we experience the freedom only the Gospel can bring.

If you weren't there or want to revisit it, you won't want to miss this one.
