The gospel assures us that Jesus equips and guides us through the Holy Spirit. Pastor Wesley examines Acts 1:1-26, where the apostles await the promised Spirit and choose Matthias to replace Judas, emphasizing the importance of prayer, community, and divine guidance. This sermon encourages us to trust in God's provision and direction as we fulfill His mission.</p><p>A full video of this service is available on our <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnWOxypdU3Ngped5xTlz2VA/videos" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Youtube Page</a>.
