The First Christians - Martyrs, Imprisonment, and Provision

Pastor Chris Ansell of CityReach Church Swissvale continues our sermon series, "The Way of Jesus: The First Christians." The peace the early church experienced is over. James, the brother of John is killed by Herod Agrippa, Peter is arrested and is next on the chopping block. In this passage we see the church's earnest prayers answered by God as Peter is delivered from jail. This passage can teach us about earnest prayer, but also the faith that should follow such prayers.

Passage: Acts 12:1-24
