This week Chris carries on looking at our series in Acts. As Paul, Silas and Timothy continue their journey through modern-day Turkey we see that – after visiting the churches that were planted when Paul visited the first time – may of their options for onward travel are intentionally blocked by the Spirit, directing them towards the coastal city of Troas and across the sea into Macedonia. In this journey God directs them not by speaking directly to Paul or through any kind of prophecy but through gentle nudges and the closing of doors to them. How often has that been our experience?
Susan leads the rest of the service as we invite Tasha, director of the local YFC centre, to speak about their work with young people in schools and churches in the local area and how we can support them in prayer. Pete and Nick lead our sung worship this week.
