Summer Together: The example of Philip

July 16, 2017 Series: Summer Together: Celebrating Community

Topic: Summer Together Verse: Acts 8:1–40

An ancient model of modern evangelism.  The example of Philip

Samaritans - A brief history

  • Guardian keepers of Torah
  • Felt rejected by Jews

Who are the Samaritans of today?

  • Who are the people we look down on?
  • Those we don't invite?
  • People separated by prejudice

Who was the Ethiopian?

  • Jewish eunuch
  • Accepted, believed and baptized by Philip

Philip - What can we learn from him?

  • Not what we say, just willing to go

1. Go

2. Listen

3. Understand

The message is the same, the method is different
